Not so. (I did look over the site but found nothing regarding those
titles).
Even if Rob uploaded registered software to his own BBS, I would have
written pretty much the same thing. Coupled with his message about
supporting RA which as I can tell is also abandoned software.
Unless the Software author expressly states the software is public
domain, then it is NOT public property. It's sad when an author
abandons software but they are under no obligation to make it public.
when they no longer wish to work on it. They might change their mind at
some point in the future. or not...
In any case, no one else can make the decision for the author.
Not to question Jas Hud's honesty but others might not adhere to the
truth where software ownership is concerned.
If you can't get it from the lawful owner, then you can't get it.
That's my opinion.
