If they follow the path they did with BackSpace, it could be in for an  
improvement at the cost of no longer being an offical NeXT app (but instead  
wandering into that grey area of ownership and responsibility.  Kind of like  
NewsGrazer, except we don't all get source to NG.  I think application demos  
are necessary, but I see no reason why Librarian shouldn't keep what  
functionality it had.  NeXT could supply source and say, if you want added  
functionality, add it on yourself or purchase a third-party substitute.)

Let's hope so.  I'd hate to lose Librarian, but I'd also hate to have to end up  
buying apps that I consider part of the system (Librarian is one such app).

I hear you there.  Definately.
