 BR> Missed that one <g> but as it's almost 5 years old I 
 BR> doubt he cares anymore,

Umm, it doesn't matter if it's 100 years old, you should ALWAYS respect the 
wishes of the authors, especially when releasing on the Filegate.

It's Authors First there.

 BR> but I'll try to reach him and find out. He left FIDONet in 1997 ...

That should have been done first.  Sorry to sound stern about it, but it's the 
pet peeves that you crossed into... 

1) Don't re-release (which InspectA is.. it was hatched ages ago already)
 2) Don't go against author requests regarding distribution

3) Don't modify original archives.


You did all three things, which you really shouldn't.  :-/
