I could be wrong, but I doubt anyone remains at Activision from the Infocom days to remind them.
More likely, the Infocom alumnae will hold an event of their own, a la the reunion in Cambridge five years ago.

Well, I know that Activision is planning yet another Infocom
compilation. Maybe they'll make it the 25th anniversary edition.
