Apparently the author no longer works for Aberdeen.   So maybe they weren't
happy with the report either.    I took up the inaccuracies with SleepyCat,
who commissioned the report, and they took it up with Aberdeen ... but I
don't know what happened after that.   Certainly they haven't corrected the
report.

I don't think there's anything we *can* do at the moment other than take it up
with an attorney, which really hasn't been our project's style.
