Great! I'd love to take a look at all that.
OK, it'll all be appearing once we have a chance to get organized (it's all
mixed in with personal files).
That is very interesting. It may be related to the V6
with NCP from
UoI/DTI.
I think it _is_ the V6 from UoI/DTI. The source has Gary (?) Grossman's and
Steve Holmgren's name on it, and the headers say they date from 1074-75.
The printout does not have the kernel modifications
with it, so it would
be great if your archive does include that.
The archive does include the complete kernel, but i) the changes aren't listed
in any way (I forsee a lot of 'diffs', unless you just take the entire
kernel), ii) there's a file called 'history' which contains a long list of
general changes/improvements of the kernel not really related to TCP/IP, by a
long list of people, dated from the middle of '78 to the middle of '79. So it
looks like he started with a considerably modified system.
The only client code I see is User Telnet. (The MIT code has User and
Server Telnet and FTP, as well as SMTP, but it uses a wholly different
TCP interface.)
