did you recognise the answer from Jim Brain? He said that George's
collection was taken over by Bo Zimmerman (now hoster and maintainer of
the former Funet.FI cbm archive). And in fact, the CBM products list
seems to be maintained by Bo now also and the paraph (initials) behind
the 2040 entries now are "BZ".

Hopefully Bo finds some time to jump into the discussion over here.

Sorry, at least I didn't find one.

Oh no, I didn't want to say that I would have it available in
non-electronic form. I wanted to say only that in my personal HDD
archives I even can't find a scan copy of one of the mentioned books or
papers.

Please replace "don't" with "done" and the sentence should become
meaningful ;-)
