	Well, Guy Harris, thanks for helping me tell the world about our
	(should I use 'my', since you're no longer at CCI?) Power 6/32
	and the OS(s) that it runs. Just to set the record straight:
	1) As you correctly pointed out, the stuff you did at OSG was
	   running first on a VAX, not on 6/32. If a port was started, it
	   was never released.
	2) The only released 4.2 version and system 5 version on 6/32
	   come from CPG, in Irvine.
	3) The OSG version was used for a couple of ideas while
	   porting system 5 to 6/32. However, the final stuff is nowhere
	   near the VAX stuff. Anyone who looks at our real releases will
	   find it to adhere to system 5 standards (yes, even the signal
	   numbers and system call numbers and ....).
	4) Trying to tell what the real machine looks like just by telling
	   what some VAX looked like in the past is a fruitless
	   exercise.

	Very truly yours
