Cool...
So, I thought I'd share this here.
Don't know if anybody else is
interested,
but you never know until you tell people about
stuff...
Definitely glad to see efforts to reverse-engineer this software.
For the curious there is a good walk-through of
Venix/86 2.1 being
installed here on the MESS emulator:

Yea, this is where I got the XT version that's in my repo :) I've been
working with the Rainbow mess emulator author to get the Rainbow version
working..
Has anyone established whether all the various Venix releases have
been found and which of the add-on tools have been
found? like the
Fortran and RM/COBOL referenced on wikipedia?

I have none of them. I just have Venix... I'd love to see them...
