Xephon Magazines

Thomas Publications, which acquired all rights for the Xephon materials from www.xephon.com, has given support rights for all the materials, up through the end of the year 2005, to www.cbttape.org.

Therefore, XEPHON materials republished here certainly have a right to be here, so you don't have to worry about using them.

The Xephon magazines have a rather scary copyright notice printed on each page. This copyright notice no longer applies, since Xephon gave the rights to Thomas, and Xephon is defunct. But I have found it impossible to edit these out of the magazines, so they simply need to be ignored. Please use these materials as you see fit. If you use any code, though, you should give attribution to the author. It is only right to do that.

VM Update — Special Note

This applies to all of the Xephon magazines except for VM. The VM magazine rights were bought by SDS-USA, and I got permission from Jim Lampi of SDS to post them on our website, or put them on the CBT Tape, provided that attribution is given to SDS (Software Diversified Services).

Additional Resources

File 830 on the CBT Tape also contains Xephon MVS materials from before 1998, so it is worth while to search the contents of that file. The "raw" version of File 830 is File 814. File 830 is a "fixed up" version of File 814, with much effort put in, to correct errors. Not perfect yet, but much better.
