Why is this off topic for this list?

Is it because I'm trying to find software?  Or is it because it's a 
question about Linux?

I'd like to point out that I'm asking about software that is decidedly 
in the broad category of unix and unix like operating systems.  Note the 
lower case u to avoid any licensing issues.  Further, I'm asking about a 
unix (if you will) from 1991, which actually predates 2.11BSD from 1992. 
  I suspect that Warner's discussions about 2.11BSD are decidedly on topic.

So, I ask, why is this off topic for this list?
