Information Letter 7

Information Letter 7 was a general status report. It summarised an eventful month: development got underway on AutoCAD on both the 8086 host machines (in C), and on the Z-80 (using PL/I). We had given up on the old source code, and were furiously rewriting it in the new languages. It included the initial documentation of Auto Book, ``the product that would not die''.

This information letter is being mailed with the minutes of the July general meeting appended to the end. Other items are included about things not brought up at the meeting.
