I, too, was amazed to find that the terminal emulator package posted
to the net was Versaterm but with someone else's name and company
identification.  While I try to refrain from posting nontechnical
messages, I think this is an appropriate exception.

Such blatant piracy can not be tolerated.  I have deleted the copy
that came to me and I recommend that everyone else do the same.  If
it is possible to purge the posting from net.sources.mac, I recommend
that be done also.

I hope to be posting software we are developing soon.  I intend to post
sources.  The purpose is to participate in the colleagial environment.
Piracy can destroy the trust and respect that makes such environments
possible.
