Thus it appears that: 1) 1983 HRW version of V7 manual is not "the real thing", instead that Holy Original status belongs to the ringed binder version; 2) All non-Berkeley supplementary docs in 4.2BSD Usenix print are from the same plates as Holy Original V7 docs, thus the scans uploaded to archive.org by Ms. Erica Fischer can serve as a perfect reference for exactly how those Holy Original docs looked, for those of us who don't have a physical copy of that Holy Original to look at. Once again, thank you very much for this very awesome work! M~
