Keywords: Multics Message-ID: Date: 29 Aug 90 19:54:54 GMT Reply-To: multics@MTS.RPI.EDU (Richard Shetron) Distribution: na Organization: The Voice of Fate Lines: 11 Whats the current status of the Multics hardware and software? I used to be a Multics analyst for HIS about 10 years ago and I've been thinking of working on a version for the 386 chip. I figure other people may be of similier mind and figured I'd ask here. I've heard that HIS is/has canceled Multics. Is there any old pre HIS versions that might be public domain from the project MAC days? Thanks A good bureaucracy is the best tool of oppression ever invented. Richard Shetron USERFXLG@rpi.mts.edu multics@clotho.acm.rpi.edu
