It's nice of them to have released the code. However, I just had a quick
trip to their list of requirements for the build, and I'm sorry to say, but
they use quite a bit of commercial software and even if I had time to work
on it, I certainly don't have the money at this time to buy all of this,
specially since some of the stuff is Mac OS 8 or 9 only, which is not a
guarantee that it would work under classic in OS X. Just looking at the way
they did organize the build gives me a good idea why the product was so
flawed...

-Laurent.

dinosaur n.: 1. Any hardware requiring raised flooring and special power.
Used especially of old minis and mainframes, in contrast with newer
microprocessor-based machines. In a famous quote from the 1988 Unix EXPO,
Bill Joy compared the liquid-cooled mainframe in the massive IBM display
with a grazing dinosaur "with a truck outside pumping its bodily fluids
through it". IBM was not amused. Compare big iron; see also mainframe. 2.
