completely wrong. I just asked the people who were there, on TUHS, and
they confirmed my memory: DARPA funding for BSD support ended in 1995,
and that was probably the biggest factor in ending the UCB activities
in BSD.

I think it's important to verify claims with primary sources. Many of
those people are still alive.

Thank you for the clearance. Looking from a distance I misinterpreted the real reasons and I never met the primary sources in person. That was my interpretation and as it seems it was wrong. Thank you for your effort to make things more clear.
