The Western U.S. company of the same name was formed to sell it, but I don't know if any of the Ozites moved to Palo Alto.
This port to Interdata 7/32 was done by Richard Miller @ the University of Wollongong. AFAIK he is a Canadian (now living in the UK). No idea if any Canadian coastal cultures were involved! Much later he also did the plan9 port to the first RaspberryPi & subsequent models. His coding style is certainly quite minimal.
