Well, the previous thread on this list (when I asked about Kid Nepro patches) threw up a link to a guy named Walt Whitney selling old patch tapes on eBay. I bought one that turned up a few weeks ago, so I guessed you'd bought one as well. Perhaps not then...
I'm sure this guy could find someone to fix bugs etc. but he'd have to pay them for the work and get them to agree not to distribute the source. Alternatively, he could release the source code to the community and then interested parties could have a look and tackle the work that interested them, with the assistance of others. He's not going to make any money out of that, but at least all the fixes & improvements should be available to all Xpander owners.
My point is that years are passing and the source code (if he still actually has it) isn't providing any benefit to him at the moment. If we (by which I mean you) could ask him to release it to us then there's at least a chance he might get the bugfixes etc. he's looking for. He probably hasn't thought about it for years, so we'd need you to ask him about it now.
