This is just to report that I have had no responses from anyone 
who has had their hands on IDRIS.  If there were any IDRIS
buyers, they seem not to be on the net now.  What a pity.
I had the impression at the time that IDRIS was ahead of 
its time.

Someone wrote and asked the address for Whitesmiths.
I do not have it.
