This isn't a problem - after all it is still within the company, albeit an
Australian
subsidiary!!

As far as getting hoild of the BSAFE API -- I managed to get hodl of the
BSAFE
version3.0 Library Reference Manual and User's Manual via a purchase over
the net. Unfortunately, I had to pay more for the international courier to
deliver them
to Australia than the manuals themselves [post was not a delivery option!].
