maybe Norman could speak to the attitudes about source code control and the perceived need
for it.

I think Norman's point was that the Research guys didn't use a source
code control system. SCCS was around and documented in System III in 1980,
so it was probably done before then, but not in the research group.

I'm
sure there are other (mainly smaller) examples, though since we
used no source-code control mechanism, tracing the details is
non-trivial.
No SCCS? When did Rochkind do SCCS? Wasn't it early 70's? I gotta believe
there is SCCS history out there. And for the record, BitKeeper can read it.
