Hi,
Thank you for this. The letters in the DMR2 folder are extremely
interesting.
lett9 is to M. Carpenter (unknown to me) at the european CERN !
What can be shared about these on social media? Are these tapes
considered private data, or public domain, or something else?

All, way back when, Dennis sent me some DECtape images
to look after. I've
put some of them in the Unix Archive (the s1 and s2 tapes) as they contained
Unix source code or binaries. The others I kept aside as they didn't contain
Unix code, or they were potentially sensitive.
Anyway, Angelo Papenhoff asked for any old tapes from the Labs that might
contain fragments of B source code or B binaries. I passed the extra tapes
on to him, and he has found some very interesting nuggets from the time
period when B -> NB -> C.
So, to help provide the context around Angelo's work, I've decided to put
all the tapes that Dennis gave me here:
