There is a release of "Xanadu" that has a hand-hacked database, no editor, is not actually useful.
I was so enthused as a yout' by the library copy of Computer Lib/Dream Machines, and a few Xanadu articles. But then I figured out it was vaporware after the magazine (Creative or Byte, I'm running a search but it's slow) article explaining & praising it by one collaborator… and then the next issue had an angry letter from Ted Nelson retracting almost everything.
