Thanks Good that the semiconductor Manufacturers

Sorry, but the above is Nonsense in my eyes.
If they publish the datasheets, thy could inform companies that produced
the programmers anyways to reach the end users.
Ther isn't any benefit when they hold the algorithms secret.
Who is it that they would WANT to withhold the information from as to how
to properly use the parts??!? What are the undesirable consequences of
"unauthorized" correct information??!?
Yea, try asking this the manufacturers of GALs, CPLDs and FPGAs.
Exactly the same thing. Nobody is telling you how the bitstream for an FPGA
is to be build.
Nevertheless, I want to use already obsolete technology for hobbyist use,
but thy couldn't deliver the needed information ANYMORE, since they had no
documentation for the parts anymore, at least at Cypress. The new owner of
the EPROM facility don't even answered..
