(if not already too late) In article I write: > Have you read etc/INTERVIEW in the GNU Emacs distribution?

It was; the interview was written in 1986 and the Microsoft vs. Apple lawsuit was started _two_ _years_ later (source for the latter: the journal "Communications of the ACM" of May 1989, article "Why The Look And Feel Of Software User Interfaces Should Not Be Protected By Copyright Law" (recommended reading!)) This misinformation was purely my own creation and *not* intentional. My sincere apologies to FSF, Richard Stallman and any others whose feelings I may have hurt. ++sja
