Rolf Peukert asks if Kate has ever given an official statement
about the various the various home demo bootlegs "...or in
HOMEGROUND..."

The answer is that she has never addressed the point directly.

Generally Kate does not seem to like any unofficial tresspassing
on any element of her career, and consequently she does not seem 
to like the idea of bootlegs. Where she can take action, i.e.
against the threatened release of "The Early Years", she does.

As I understand it, Kate would prefer that what she regards as 
her
unfinished, unpolished, infantile sketches were not in the public
domain. 

This is one area where Kate's wishes and the natural desires of
fans are in direct opposition. As these things exist and fans 
collect
them, HOMEGROUND reports them. They won't cease to exist because 
we
don't report them.
