I would certainly support this. While we can all have our personal copy it
seems strange that ETHZ are removing this evidence of Professor Wirth's
work. In their place I'd want to celebrate it!
To my everlasting regret I never met Professor Worth (the only Oberon day I
attended he did not!), but buying a copy of Algorithms + Data Structures =
Programs in the 80s was one of the most important purchases in my computing
career.
