Michal:

You quote Ken Parsons as saying:
'Their prior software excursion was based on software that others owned. I for one.'

IDS once had a contract in which Ken, at a different company, was involved. to do migration for yet a third party. That is all. Do not make this out to mean more.

I have spoken to CSGI. While many disagreements over the details of what went on exist, and no one could sort out same without lawyers and courts galore, these facts are clear:

1) Ken Parsons was at no time an employee of CSGI in any way
2) CSGI at no time had access to CAST sourcecode or rights to use same. CAST and CSGI product clearly have no common internals, not code nor anything else.
3) CSGI product was not developed with Ken Parsons. They are not therefore built basicly on Ken's knowledge or technology.

Now, WRT CSGI marketing CAST (help me out on this TECH) I believe CSGI did this for a brief period, to the best of my understanding. It is not clear to me that they used the name STARMAP, you would have to ask them. This does not change the facts above.

Any contrary assertions are, as Taoman points out, 'crap', I would add: falicious nonsense, fantasy.
