I've sent money to Stefan B. using Internation coupons, he received it
(actually he signed the thing), but my copy is still not registred |-( I can't
count how many mails I did send him. I've even called Team17 where he
works/worked, without being able to reach him… I felt this registration has
been a big joke, and I do not thank him for that.
Many other shareware authors have been very prompt in handling the registration
(Spot was done in 2 days, Winzip on PC was done in 4 hours! etc).
It's too bad that lha, which is maybe the most used software after Workbench on
the Amiga, has not been given the support it deserved. Now I understand some
shareware users can be suspicious about registering 🙁 Why the hell didn't
S.B. give the registration process to someone else, even if it would have meant
less money for him? I may be registering lzx, which seems to be a little bit
more accurate than lha (but still in its early days – read still have some
bugs), as I've had very good echoes of registred users…
Maybe an organization such as ASP on PCs should be settled for the Amiga? Or is
it too late…

I sent off for my reg yesterday via cserve and just received the keyfile in a
mail
message a few hrs ago. Good response for me.
