Does anyone know where to contact SoftTech Inc in Europe ? They are the
suppliers of the SADT real time design method. I need to contact them to
get a copy of their document "An Introduction to SADT" - does anyone know
of any alternative UK/European sources/distributers of this document ?

If there is no European contact point, could someone please post their
US address and telephone number or a relevant Email address so that I can
contact their US office direct.


Thanks

Someone I know has a pirated copy of an expensive piece of commercial
software.  Today this person received a letter from the company
producing the software.  It was a form letter -- very polite and
understated.  But the main point was clear: "we have reason to believe
you have a copy of our product.  Send us a photocopy of your original
diskette and prove that you are entitled to have it."

I strongly disapprove of pirating software, and am quite vocal about
it.  As a result, I found myself in the uncomfortable position of
feeling like I was suspected of having turned this person's name in
to the company.  I most certainly did not do so.

My question: what mechanism is likely to have triggered such a letter?

My apologies to readers of other than comp.misc: I editted another article
to post this one, and accidentally sent this to many inappropriate newsgroups.
I also failed to edit the references field; 1378@Terra.cc.brunel.ac.uk has
nothing to do with this posting.

If anyone cares to continue this thread, PLEASE correct my error and post
only to comp.misc.

I'm so embarrassed...              --doug james
