A rumor was going around that: (I'll ask this in parts) 1. CMU was rewriting the ATT code in the kernel. 2. Mach would be released in the "public domain" in September. (Anyone at CMU care to comment?) 3. The Free Software Foundation (ie RMS and friends) were going to use the Mach kernel. Can any of this be true? ( ... maybe I just dreamed it all. ) Brian bpalmer@bbn.com
