 The Base Practice robots were written by Ted Hadley, and he was always tight with that source code.

 Ted is an incredibly sharp fellow, and wrote some really amazing pieces with BRMH and Calvin server and such.  It'd be ashame to lose the work he did with those base practice robots.

 I was hoping that maybe he had passed this on to someone else, but it doesn't appear so. :(
