Now that ancient unix has been relicensed with an old-style BSD licence,
is the FreeBSD-1.X cvs repository going to be made public?

Out of curiousity, why?

And, where have you heard that it's been relicensed?

"Out of curiousity" :)

Perhaps for the same reasons I spent a half an hour getting BSD 2.11
running on a PDP-11 emulator.

Thanks.  However, this isn't as specific as I'd like it to be.  It
implies that Net1/Net2 are now 'legal', but it doesn't give explicit
release of said source code.

Kirk was surprised by how popular the CSRG archives CDs are.

Thanks.  I'm going to wait and see what happens w/regards to the talking
heads on this, and if the consensus is that it's legal to post, I'll
upload the bits to freefall.

I'll note that this happened because of the efforts of the Unix
Heritage Society, and their archive (which until recently was
password-protected and required a free licence from SCO, like
the CSRG CDs) is now public. See <http://www.tuhs.org/> and
<http://minnie.tuhs.org/pipermail/tuhs/2002-January/thread.html>.

It's legal.  Here's the original message.  I'm also copying Dion
Johnson.  Dion, as I'm sure you're aware, we took the FreeBSD 1.x
sources offline because they were "tainted" with AT&T code.  Now that
32V is free, there should be no further problem releasing them, right?

Greg,

Yes it is most certainly our intent to free up the ancient Unix
sources so that they can be used, essentially, for anything.
Caldera asks for some acknowledgement, and disclaims all the
usual stuff.

I cant completely answer the question about your archives since I
have not examined them and I dont know what other taint may be
present.  But as far as the ancient Unix, and the "AT&T source
license" requirement is concerned, I think this part of the
problem has gone away.

Caldera really does want this to be a happy, open source party
of geek fun.  We are not looking to trick anyone with secret
legal viruses hidden in the code, or dark incantations buried
in the fine print. ;-)  

Write me if anyone has any questions or wants more reassurances.
