[Rolen, Mark E.]

I would simply like to know if anyone still has the original tarball?  I'd
like to have it for backup purposes... *hint hint*   : )

What happend to the "non-LZW" code (gd1.3) ?
It seems that gd is out of circulation (ahum, sort of), because of the LZW
encoding used ?
Let's not create a discussion on copyrights here, but I would like to know
if GIF equals LZW ??? (I was under the impression that it did not ...)
