Is there any word about whether Claris will let user groups distribute 2.0v2 as Apple did for 2.0 before Claris acquired it? --Mark

I inquired about the current state of user-group distribution and was told that BMUG did have permission to distribute it in this form, but presumably not as the 5-disk Claris set. -- Barry Eynon barry@playfair.stanford.edu

I'm curious about the license agreement. I have my brand-new license agreement right here. It says I can distribute HyperCard 2.0. As far as getting it goes, though, it says Apple *may* provide me with a copy. It also says that if they don't, I have to buy it through my normal purchasing channel.
