Subject: [TUHS] How good a representative of System V is Solaris
Date: Sat, 30 May 2009 21:10:36 +1200	[thread overview]

FWIW, I did ask Novell a year or so ago about releasing OSF/1 from the SysVRx 
license requirement; I sent them a reminder, together with the request that 
they consider giving TUHS an SysVRx source/binary license.

So far they haven't responded.  Maybe I should get onto the local branch and 
ask them to take it up with headquarters ... :)
