There were a few copies of the 'System 5.0' disk at Applefest which 'somehow'
got liberated.  I have seen notes on ALPE that indicate that at least one
of these liberated versions appeared on a local BBS to be downloaded (no,
I dont know the #).

The Apple Development team responded quite quickly in noting that the version
at the show has some known problems and should NOT be placed on a hard disk
due to the potential of data loss.

I have contacts who have seen one of the liberated versions and it indeed
has areas which are not as solid as one might wish.  The version that they
saw had a few pieces missing as well.  But they were quite impressed at
watching quickdraw open and close windows, scroll text, etc.

What has to be done to a font to make it a fastfont?
