I don't know if he still reads email. I'll try.

I suspect the original alpha poplog was produced on a 32 bit sparc
running solaris. So maybe you can use any running poplog.

Strange. Can you access anything in this university, e.g.
http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/
http://www.bham.ac.uk/
http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/research/poplog/freepoplog.html
I wonder if there's some connection with the fact that I cannot
send you email. Your domain seems to be unreachable, e.g.
traceroute paradise.nirvananet
traceroute: unknown host paradise.nirvananet
Maybe you are using a service that is not properly registered on the
internet, at least according to the requirements of our security
systems?
