I am looking for some information on the various releases of
system V as implemented on the AT&T computers (7300/3B1, 3B2).
In particular:
    1) what is the difference between Sys V R1 vs Sys V R2.

    2) what is the difference between Sys V R2 as implemented on
       3B/2 vs Sys V R2 implemented on a 7300.

    3) how does Sys V R2 as implemented on the 7300 and 3B/2
       differ from Sys V R2 implemented on a VAX.
    
    4) what is AT&T Computer Systems Division's commitment to
       maintain downwards compatibility in future releases of
       Sys V.  What is the core set that should not change (e.g.
       drivers, object formats, etc.).

    Please respond via email.  If others are interested I will
post the results.

			Thanks in advance
