The letter is pretty suspicious. Two typos and not
very "lawerly".
Sent
by e-mail? Not withstanding the assumption that the BAMA folks have
actually replied to the message and confirmed it's real. Does
anyone know
if this has happened?
Definitely 'for real'. There's been a suggestion Agilent were not
happy with the quality of some of the BAMA offerings, quite apart from
the copyright issue. They may have felt it reflected badly on them.
Could be a linkage there, who knows?
There's also a report that a large test equipment manual collection
(of old HP stuff) belonging to an Agilent employee has been borrowed
to be scanned and pdf files for these manuals will be available from
the Agilent website in due course.
