- According to the Petri Nordlund, the Executive programmer, he has only
- applied legal programming techniques as published by Commodore.
- Therefore, by definition it's not a hack (I guess; I'm not sure about
- the exact definition of a "hack" :-))
-
- Oh BTW, I doubt that Maple has been "blessed" by Commodore or
- Amiga-Tech, etiher.

- Nonsense :-)
-
- You cannot make conclusions like that, just because MapleV was there
- first.
-
- Since Executive co-extists happily with (almost?) all other programs,
- the chance that MapleV does not conform to programming guide-lines is
- just as likely. And it just so happens that Petri has given evidence to
- this effect elsewhere.
