It's in the UK. Anybody there care to chat with George & extract the bits from the tape so we can put it in the archive? ----- Forwarded message from George Coulouris ----- To: Warren Toomey < wkt@henry.cs.adfa.oz.au> From: George Coulouris < George.Coulouris@dcs.qmw.ac.uk> Subject: Re: PDP-11 UNIX Warren, I've had a 9-track tape reel in my bottom drawer for about 15 years. I no longer remember what is on it! It may contain the source of 'em' and a few other utilities that I wrote in the '70s. Unfortunately I have no convenient way to read it. If you are interested, I could try to find someone with a 9-track reel drive, or if you have one I could just send the tape to you. I'd be happy to liase with anyone who is willing to have a go at reading the tape. George ----- End of forwarded message from George Coulouris ----- Also, the source code petition has now got 290 signatures. I haven't heard anything from SCO since I passed it to them formally, except that they had received it and it was being passed to `the right people'. I'll keep updating the status page, hyperlinked to the petition itself, as things happen. The petition's at http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/petition.html. Quite a number of well-known people have signed. Both Andy Tan(n)enbaums, Steven Schultz, Richard Tobin, Bill Joy, Henry Spencer, Neil Groundwater, Dave Presotto, Andrew Hume, Peter Collinson, Greg Rose, Brian Redman, Peter Honeyman, Megan Gentry, Jim McKie, Margo Seltzer, John Mashey, Peter Salus, Ozalp Babaoglu, Keith Bostic, George Coulouris etc. Plus all the other individuals who have shown support. Cheers, Warren
