As far as I know, they're still held tightly by whatever part of AT&T
inherited them.
They should be released - for a variety of reasons, amongst them the pulling
of the teeth of various entities intent on muddying the waters with an
outflux of legal venom.
Perhaps someone should set up a petition to that inheriting entity, a la the
Ancient Unix petition, asking them on behalf of all interested parties, that
they release them under a suitable license - perhaps BSD, it's nice and short
and easy to remember - some people out there have very short attention spans
and we don't want them confused.
Any comments?

What has become of the various research unix releases
after
7th edition? Have any of these ever been released publically?
Are any of them being archived for historical reasons? Are any
of the versions publically available now?
