The point that I was trying to get across in my earlier message was that
I felt that Workman's interests were not so much to help the general public
with the distribution of public domain software, but to put more money into
his pockets off the work done by others.  Is this kind of piracy any better
than stealing copies of CP/M, even though it's done with permission from
the author?  I feel that any distribution should be done through non-profit
organizations.

My other complaint was that this *was* a profit-making organization, and
advertisements as such shouldn't be announced via INFO-CPM.  Pournelle may
get away with this with BYTE, but I really don't want to see it here.
