Hello,

     I have a few comments & questions about Noistracker and it's so-called
commercial release.  First,  since Noisetracker was based on Soundtracker
2.3 so the docs say.  Since 2.3 is based on 2.2 on back to the original author
of the commercial release of soundtracker 1.0.  We suppose that the original
author's code was hacked to create the hacker versions of Soundtracker.  Well
If this is the case how can a HACKED version of an original release become
commercial?  First the original author must agree to this.  What about all
the subsequent authors to 2.3?  Are they going to get compensation for the
work they have done?  What they did wasn't right, but they did put a lot
of work into the product.  Should they be consulted as to the commercial
release and fitness of the product?  Just some thoughts and questions.
