Remember that these magazines are independent of Acorn, and it does create
friction if they feel that one magazine gets preferential treatment, for
obvious commercial reasons.

Besides, if it is published with Acorn's name on it, users will expect all
the usual support from Acorn, including bug fixes.

Risc User recently published its own DDE frontend for the ISO Pascal. 
I haven't compared this with the Acorn one.
