Re: [ql-users] Perfection upgrade
In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], Duncan Neithercut [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes Many thanks for your efforts on behalf of Perfection users. And a genuine special thanks for letting us know what the programme is. Thanks ... just a part of the fun of being a 'ql_user' ... :-) If you are successful in making contact - do you plan to ask for the source to be made available as PD or freeware and the same for other DP programs that are not yet in the public domain? Nothing specific decided a yet ... but that could be a way that it will work out to be. A postal letter was sent a few days ago to Dave Batty. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Malcolm Cadman Sent: 19 November 2004 09:08 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ql-users] Perfection upgrade In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], Duncan Neithercut [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes To reply to the queries below : Emails have been sent to try to contact David Batty, yet no reply has been received over the latter 3 weeks. A letter will also be sent to an address held. A request for information has also been placed in QL Today. If nothing resolves from all of this I am in discussion with Dave Gilham about an alternative way of releasing the upgrade to users. Overall please be patient as these things take time. Yes, I dont quite understand that if you already own a legal copy of Perfection why cannot be allowed to get hold of the upgrade. Happy to provide proof of purchase. DP are not trading so loss of profit should not be an issue, loss of support for previous commercial programmes is an issue to me for many of us but that is disregarded by traders that have disappeared - hats off to those who remain. How about this : whoever has it send me a copy please. I will look at the code compare it with the original copy I have and then try to create a program that will patch anyones legal copy upto the style of the upgraded version. To avoid copyright issues I will endevour to use different code in the patch - no problem for me as I am a menace as an assembler programmer and could never produce the polished code that the experts have done. Thanks to whovever sends a copy in advance.
