As a (very junior, though) member of the SDS, I can confirm this. Marvin
is the head of the SDS. You forgot one thing, though: upcoming Starfire
products will be published in electronic format 'til we can work up a
market for printed products again; TFG didn't dare to print anything,
and
the severe lack of support and new products for Starfire hasn't helped
at
all.
