I queried MPS since I don't see Bill Duvall listed as involved with MPS, or at least listed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_Programmer%27s_Workshop#History MPS, Macintosh Programmers System was the early name for MPW (Macintosh Programmers Workshop) "MPW was started in late 1985 by Rick Meyers, Jeff Parrish, and Dan Smith (now Dan Keller)" If it was MDS as you suggest then it would be good to have some background to fill in where it came from, is it mentioned anywhere else other than this? http://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?story=3rd_Party_Developers_and_Macintosh_Development.txt It seems to lack a wikipedia entry.
