From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: wes.parish@paradise.net.nz (Wesley Parish) Date: Wed, 09 Apr 2008 21:05:54 +1200 Subject: [TUHS] the V distributed system Message-ID: <200804092105.54738.wes.parish@paradise.net.nz> I was researching various windowing systems for various reasons and I found the mention of the V distributed sytem on the W article stub on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W_Window_System "W was originally developed at Stanford University by Paul Asente and Brian Reid for the V operating system." A few questions here: is V close enough to Unix to warrant winding up in an "Other" category in the TUHS repository? Does anyone have a copy of it (plus source if possible)? If so, who should I contact? Thanks Wesley Parish -- Clinersterton beademung, with all of love - RIP James Blish ----- Gaul is quartered into three halves.
