When the IAD retired, we went through the files we got and put everything 
we found in the asset register.  I don't remember seeing a license from 
you, but that would not be the only thing that got lost.  I suppose it 
might be worth it for the trust to contact the early authors like you who 
are still easy to find and see if we can get new copies and put them in 
the asset register so they don't get lost again.
