Gavin replied, but I don't think it made it through to the newsgroup:

public release.

That's unfortunate, why can't you share the code? It looked like it was 
based on previous open source effort, which is why I was hoping it would 
be available.

I'm not using your binary releases because I prefer to build things like 
this myself, and to run them on my NetBSD and Linux systems. I don't 
think there's much to be gained from keeping emulators closed for stuff 
discontinued 25+ years ago. (Though I do quite understand other 
circumstances, I have changes to projects I can't release without 
permission from my employer...)
