Actually, I don't think that it is.  If you can find documentation which
proves this wrong, please do so.  However, I believe that I have read in
the past that the APS formatter is just an OEM version of someone else's
formatter which is distributed with APS drives.  People started posting it
on the 'Net, and now everyone thinks it's free (or something like that).
If you can find licensing terms on it, though, I'd love to see them, since
at least version 2.7.3 seems to work pretty damn well for formatting
NetBSD partitions ;-)

Later.
