Apparently so, John. Although they seem incredibly busy, you can see that
the Newt-magnetism remains, and Rob seems committed in avoiding the
abandonware migration. I hope to have a detailed conversation with Rob this
evening to have a little more substance to report. I've been going through
my Tactile blog making a list of requests/inquiries that I have seen over
the last four months (yes, I'm a newbie).
I have taken the liberty of representing the NewtonTalk community, rather
than swamp the Bruce's at once by publishing their number to the list. So,
if you have requests/inquiries that I may have missed previous to four
months ago, please contact me off-list and I will relay them to Rob.

I need replaced codes for software I have
purchased through them...
