   Okay, now
   try to get a copy of pedrive.asm.  You can't, because they're violating
   the license.
   At least one person has tried to get a copy of pedrive.asm and been denied
   it.  They have known that they should make the source available from day
   one.  That sounds pretty persistent to me.


Just a question:  do *you* have a copy of pedrive.asm anywhere?
What's to stop you from distributing it far 'n wide yourself, since
they can't legally stop you?
