Is there any public documentation of the Un*x socket(2) level
interface(s) presented by the kernel objects provided with TOPS and/or
K-SPOOL?  Are there public versions of the kernel level EtherTalk
code?

Having seen binary distributions of both "TOPS for Suns" and K-SPOOL
for Suns, the nbpd, atinfo, atservers, and ddpstat programs look to
similar for words.  Do they share common ancestry, or is this an
example of parallel evolution?
