I have registered (thought it was 20 or 25 quid back then - obviously 
my memory is failing me). I also have a copy of the source, but it's 
old (several versions older than my copy of cppnews).

Is the Borland port available? Ie do you have a copy (that you can send 
out to registered users) or does the person who ported it (if it wasn't 
you) let it go? Do you mean that the library has been ported or the 
whole code?
