Unfortunately, the support I've received from XEROX was short of
pathetic; All their branch offices knew nothing about anything about
any LOOPS programming language, and referred me to their documentation
division, who said basically, "If you don't have the inventory number
for that manual, then don't bother us." This is from an business
organization that SELLS products?!?
Yeah well, that's one of the reasons Xerox got out of the Lisp
business. Fortunately, someone else took over from them, namely Venue.
They can be reached by calling (800)-228-5325, or by sending mail to
aisupport.mv@envos.xerox.com. You can send questions on LOOPS to
either that address or to the info-1100 mailing list, address
info-1100@cis.ohio-state.edu, which is more likely to have LOOPS users
than the CLOS mailing list.

LOOPS won't run in MuLISP, but it does run in the DOS release of
Medley, currently in beta test. I can't remember what the educational
price is right now, but I'm sure someone at Venue can.
