Re: [TUHS] Early Internet work (Was: History of select(2))

Yeah, I had run across that in my search for any remnants of the Martin stuff. As I had mentioned, I had found some old dump tapes, and had one of them read; it had some bad spots, but we've just (this morning) succeeding in having a look as to what's there, and I _think_ all of the source is OK (including the kernel code, as well as applications like server Telnet and FTP). No SCCS or anything like that, so it's a bit hit or miss doing history - the file write dates were preserved, but of course a lot of them would have been edited over time to fix bugs, add features, etc. The tape appears to contains a _lot_ of other historic material, and it's going to take a while to sort it all out; it includes a Version 6 with NCP from NOSC/SRI, some Unix from BBN; a BCPL compiler; a 'bind' for .rel format files (produced by MACRO-11 and probably BCPL) written in BCPL; programs to convert from .rel to a.out and back; an early verion of Montgomery EMACS; another Unix from 'TMI' (whoever that might be); another UNIX that's somehow associated with TRIX; someone's early kernel overlay stuff; an early 68K C compiler, and also an early 8080 C compiler - just a ton of stuff (that's just a few items that grabbed my eye as I scrolled by). Algol, alas, appears not to be there (we probably didn't add it, because of space reasons). The copy of LISP on this tape seem to be damaged; I do have 3 other tapes, and between them, I hope we'll be able to retrieve it. Noel
