The only person who ever objected to my knowledge to any efforts like
this was Lonnie Falk. The last thing I heard was that even he has no
copies of Rainbow, the books or the programs left, and has no
interest in what happens. I think any steps taken to preserve any of
this stuff would be welcomed by all concerned. Much has already been
lost, and if we don't save what's left it will all be gone forever.

As a side note, the US has millions of documents on microfilm re the
Vietnam War. These were all indexed on some system whose hardware is
no longer functional, and there is now no way to find anything. The
archivists of the world are much under appreciated.

I work on the principle; save it now until someone makes a serious
complaint. 'Saving' Outkast's latest music is likely to result in
complaint. Saving MC-10 software from some obscure club isn't.
