Did anyone from the People in USA try to get the Sourcecode?

PS: Tried to register in the PUMP Forum yet it seems to be slow.

It had to happen sooner or later. The new owners aren't interested on it.

This will only work for a while ... from what i have seen, on 14.10.2025 Powerbasic.com will be down finally.

Question is, if not somebody from USA can get hands on the sourcecode.
If they really do not need it.
