- The TP6 TPU format is published in TWU1.ZIP, on garbo.uwasa.fi. The author
- of that (William Peavy, who helped me out on Dumpprog) is in the process of
- updating his documentation to handle the TP7 format.

- It's probably possible to write an updater to work between those two
- versions because they're so similar, but it would still be very time
- consuming. I'd guess if I started working on it with the priority it
- deserves, I'd have the updater finished sometime in 1995. Think many
- people will register it then?
