	There really isn't anything in "Spycatcher" that wasn't
	fed to Chapman Pincher for his books "Their Trade is Treachery"
	and "Too Secret too Long".  Read those two and you'll have
	everything except Peter Wrights name and his complaints about
	his pension.  There was a posting on soc.culture.british a
	couple of days ago saying that the ban had been lifted.  In that
	case, I would guess the government hasn't told anybody.
