+This site came to be without the blessing of Sam Leffler. We couldn't
+get ahold of him. We really would have liked to have obtained it.
+
+<p>
+
+Attempts to track down Sam at SGI were unsuccessful (he moved on
+without providing a forwarding address). There were reports of a
+sighting at Pixar, but their operators didn't have any record of him.
+people.yahoo.com didn't have any current e-mail addresses, and while
+Mike did manage to dig up a home number for a Sam Leffler in CA, he
+was loathe to call the poor guy at home. So, Sam, if you're reading,
+we hope you don't mind us stealing your baby -- it's just that there
+was a forked version being shipped with the Imagemagick NT
+distribution, and forks are a bad thing.
+
+<p>
+
+Since SGI hosted the master ftp site for v3.4beta037, we contacted
+them instead, and recieved their permission to assume maintenance,
+since there wasn't directly a person it was currently assigned to.
