	Some of the Mathematical programming team (not Wolfram however) cameto
speak at a recent BMUG meeting.  In addition to giving a very good demonstration
of the product to a wowed audience (and that's a tough feat at a BMUG meeting!)
one of them also mentioned that WRI (Wolfram Research, inc.) has concluded that
the policy of not including the AW Text with the package was not a good idea
and all future packages (both versions) will include it.
