Some people at Hewlett Packard are willing to explore an updated "Non-Commercial
Technology Enthusiast Software License" for older software products.

This is wonderful news.

We would also like to ask if anyone knows the date of release of the last version of
HP1000 RTE
==
As of a few months ago, this was still on HP's web site.
There has also been a release of RTE 6 to Interex (w/o sources though)
RTE for the A series is a very different beast, and I beleive that was
what HP was supporting up until a few years ago. There were many, many
versions before that.
I'd also be interested in their feelings about software from non-HP
product lines that they've purchased. Apollo DOMAIN, and the various
TI 9xx/1500/Explorer would also nice to be released.
