\title{Letters to the editor 3: \textsc{Dante}}

At the end of the first paragraph of ``Malcolm's Gleanings'',
the author urges readers to `Expunge \ldots from your minds [the 
malicious and/or mischievous gossip that ``\textsc{Dante} was reluctant to
support Haralambous' and Plaice's Omega project since it was
thought to compete with NTS'']'.   Despite having a close and
mutually beneficial relationship with \textsc{Dante}, such allegations
were completely new to me, as I suspect they were to the majority
if not all of your readers: one must therefore ask at whose door
these allegations of malice or mischief should properly be laid?

I would further add that I know of no-one, either within \textsc{Dante}
or within the NTS team, who would wish John and Yannis anything less than
complete success with their project; the world will be enriched, 
not diminished, by the availability of alternative derivatives of \TeX.

Yours etc.
