I had some contact from the developers when they started, and I didn't
really respond at all (I thought it was a hoaxer). Some of the output
looks an *awful* lot like my UTA program (especially some of my more
questionable word mappings)... when I asked them about it they *said* they
developed it on their own.... but I have my doubts.
