I am sorry to hear that. My impression of it is that someone went to a great 
deal of
effort to put in a large amount of semi-realistic demonstration data. This 
would seem to
make it by far the most interesting and potentially useful of the distributions 
for those
of us wanting to set up demonstration sites to help develop a deep 
understanding of the
software and new functionality outside of the VA.

Very interesting. What routines are those?

I used a shell command like the following ( ls $vista_home/r| wc -l ) to see 
how many
routines are in my test sites for SemiVivA0.4 and VADemo0.1. The results were 
21,879 and
33,859 respectively, confirming that there is a difference of over 10,000 
routines. There
is also a significant discrepancy on both systems with the number of entries 
(21,391 and
18,568 respectively) in the ROUTINE file (#9.8).

Looking at a few of the routines from VADemo0.1 not present in SemiVivA0.4, I 
see that
some, such as XU8P125 and XU8P132 are associated with patches.
