The Wollongong Group was a California company set up initially to
market the Interdata port of 7th edition Unix which had been done at
the University of Wollongong, Australia - hence the name.  The product
("Edition VII") was eventually adopted by Interdata (by then renamed
to Perkin-Elmer and again to Coherent) as a standard O/S offering on
their 32-bit minicomputers.  The Wollongong Group diversified into
other products (e.g.  Eunice = Unix emulator on VAX/VMS) and was
eventually bought by Attachmate.
