This reminds me to mention that the issue of FOAM and other Aldor
documentation was also raised at the recent Aldor Workshop. One thing
that came to light was some additional and more recent documentation
that was apparently translated from something originally in German. I
regret that I did not take specific note of the author or obtain a
photocopy of the document that I briefly examined at the workshop
(provided by Laurentiu Dragan) but I am sure that Laurentiu knows to
which document I am referring. I think that it might be very useful to
make this document available for download from the Aldor Wiki. If an
electronic format (e.g. dvi, pdf)  is not available than even a
scanned format would be useful.
