I just received a letter from Western Electric stating that they
have an update to System V which converts from Release 1.0 to
Release 1.1.  If you are not paying for support from WE and received
your license after Aug. 1, 1983, you will have to pay $1,500/cpu.

What is most interesting is their statement that "source code in the
update may not be shared with anyone other than those licensees for
UNIX System V who have obtained the update from Western Electric".
This means that a source license for System V, Release 1.0 is not
valid for Release 1.1 ?  Interesting...
