We have seen a lot of postings on netnews, and we have received a lot of
calls at APDA, requesting that Phil and Dave's Excellent CD be made
available through APDA.  Hopefully the following will answer any questions
you have about this:

Phil and Dave's Excellent CD is restricted to Apple Partners and Associates
due to the very preliminary nature of some of the materials contained on the
CD-ROM.  We want to be assured that those who receive these pre-pre-release
code samples and tools have access to Apple Developer Technical Support.
Please be assured that all the tools and references on Phil and Dave's
Excellent CD that are considered robust enough for general distribution
do go through APDA as soon as they have been tested.  Many items on Phil
and Dave's Excellent CD are already sold through APDA, including Macintosh
and Apple II sample code, system software, and the technical notes HyperCard
stack.  Other features of Phil and Dave's Excellent CD, including
SpInside Mac and international versions of HyperCard, will be available
through APDA as soon as we can "productize" them.

We appreciate your interest in these products.  Our goal at APDA is still
to give Apple's development products the widest possible distribution.
When the tools on Phil and Dave's Excellent CD are ready for such
distribution, they will be made available as soon as possible through APDA.
