Interesting.  I didn't think that Lucasfilm had authorized a port of
BallBlazer - at least, the last time I talked to them about it, they
hadn't.  I do believe that I'll send a copy of this posting off to
them - I've no problem with a BallBlazer port, but hope that it's
a legitimate one.  Personally, I think it serves Lucasfilm right for
not doing it themselves, but there are issues of courtesy and morality,
if not legality, here...
