Hello Ian,
To confirm our conversation of earlier, we have been approached
regarding part of the contents of your web site.
Could you possibly clarify whether you hold copyright to publish the
files regarding the Elite computer game on your web site?

I am surprised to hear this because, as I can assure you, I have
received no complaints concerning the material on my site and would have
expected so to do were there any legitimate objections to it.
Please forward me a copy of the email concerned so I can consider this
matter further.

Thank you for your reply.
Please remove all Elite downloadable files available on you Elite Home
Page.
I have noted that you have added comments to your Web Site and feel these
are not assisting this situation for which CIX is very much a pawn in the
middle. CIX does not want to take side, but just to fulfil it's legal
obligation as a "Publisher" so I appreciate your efforts with regard to
this issue and appologise for the inconvenience caused to yourself.
Many Thanks

Dear Mr Wilson
A recent public announcement by Mr Braben (Article: 30740 of
alt.fan.elite) includes:
" A director of CIX has asserted to me and I beleive them, that the
purported emails that appeared on the www.cix.co.uk/~ibell website
did not reflect the real emails that went between CIX and the site
holder. From what he said, I suspect these were perhaps part of a
correspondence, not the whole. Sadly they were prevented from
providing these to me under the DPA."
This suggests i may not have received some messages which you may have
sent me, perhaps leading to misunderstandings between ourselves.
I'd be grateful if you could check the list below of 14 emails between
myself and CIX on the matter of www.cix.co.uk/~ibell and send me copies
of any missing emails.
Thanks in anticipation.

Dear Mr Davis,
As you may be aware there has been correspondance between CIX and myself
recently (attached) culminating in CIX's withdrawl of my webspace.
David Braben has publically reported (copies attached) that
" A director of CIX has asserted to me and I beleive them, that the
purported emails that appeared on the www.cix.co.uk/~ibell website did
not reflect the real emails that went between CIX and the site holder."
that
" a director of CIX has told me that the purported emails that appeared
on www.cix.co.uk/~ibell were not the truth."
and that
"I have been told by a director of CIX that the purported email trail
from CIX was bogus, and this was a major factor in [CIX] removing the
site".
Such statements are false and defamatory. I'd be grateful if you could
look into this matter and confirm or deny whether such statements were
made by CIX or not.
yours
Ian Bell

You may be interested to learn that the text attached below has recently
been webposted at http://www.frontier.co.uk/elitefaq.html in a document
headed "Elite frequently asked questions (Answers from David Braben)"
ian b
------------------------------------
(8) Why has the CIX/~ibell site disappeared?
I wanted to make the Elite binaries available as part of the possible
forthcoming Elite Club and wanted to check the
current status of the old Elite binaries. These were available on a site
under the "Ian Bell" name, with CIX as the
service provider. I did not know whether the ibell CIX account had not
also been sold, possibly to a different
person, so I asked CIX for the identity of the site holder, since the
real Ian Bell had not responded to mail sent by
surface post to his last known address. CIX needed the permission of the
site holder to reveal their true identity so
an enpasse existed for three months while the site holder did not respond
to CIX's emails. Out of desperation, and
after discussion with CIX, I thought that a threat to ask for the Elite
files to be removed might prompt a response,
and so CIX asked the account holder to remove the files. The site holder
responded by posting a small number of
purported emails from CIX to the site, which CIX told me were only a
small part of a correspondence and as such
these mails completely misrepresented what had actually been said. This
also gave out the private email addresses of
various CIX staff, and painted both CIX and myself in a very bad light. I
understand it was this that caused removal
of the entire ibell web space as it broke the terms and conditions of the
account.
There was a long discussion thread about this on alt.fan.elite,
culminating in articles appearing on a number of
magazine websites, which were later withdrawn following speaking to
myself and a representative of CIX, and I
distributed a press release about this.

I stand by both. The FAQ and the press release (which is shortcutted from
the FAQ anyway) are the same. Both CIX & I thought a threat to remove the
Elite site would trigger a response - the purported emails sealed CIX's
decision, and they removed the whole ibell web space. I don't deny that if
the dodgy mails had not appeared on the site then CIX would probably have
carried out my threat eventually, but this would probably have only been
the
Elite site.

You seem to have forgotten that the original purpose of this fiasco was to
put the Elite files on our site here. I am still awaiting a response from
the site holder.
The FAQ is intended to clarify things, and avoid this thread continuing
indefinitely in the stupid Derek Smart flamewar style. I have posted here
as
it concerns the faq, but I will not keep posting on this question. I
suggest
people go to the faq instead.

Hi,
On 9/9/99 CIX suspended access to my webspace at two days notice on the
basis of an alledged undisclosed complaint by David Braben.
Since then Mark Wilson agreed to restore my site if given a written
undertaking from myself that certain materials would not be uploaded,
which i provided last month.
In an email of 20/10/99 (attached below) Mark Wilson promised to restore
my site during the following week. This he failed to do and he is not now
responding to my emails.
Can you please restore access to my webspace?
My links have now been broken for two months.

I have removed all "Elite gaming software" from ".old".
