Tim, are these files generally available?

As it turns out, I do have these files from the old NAG
demo disk for which I do not have a usable current license
but I can at least read the code. Are you intending to
put them into cvs soon for others to read? Bertfried is
interested, would there be any licensing issues if I
were to send him (or anyone else who asks) a copy by
email attachment?
