DEC has talked a bit about Ultrix 4.2.  At the Usenix BOF on Ultrix,
the phrase "Ultrix 4.2" was used commonly.  In un-organized discussions,
anywhere, Ultrix 4.2 was bandied about exclusively.

Simple question: What's the timeframe on Ultrix 4.2?  (Will it also be
released similarly to 4.1, full install, followed later by a method to
update previous versions...?)

As we're considering skipping 4.1 and just wait for 4.2, I'm trying to
get a handle on how long it will be necessary to wait...  :-)
