Two questions I suspect many sites are interested in: 1. Are the 4.2bsd manuals still available from Usenix/Howard Press? 2. Are the 4.3bsd manuals available from Usenix yet? -- H. Morrow Long Manager of Development Yale Univ. CS Dept. ..!ucbvax!decvax!yale!long-morrow

There will be a full article and an order form in the September/October issue of ;login:. However, there are a few 4.2BSD Programmer's Manuals still available; there are also 4.2BSD System Manual Manager's Manuals available. We are completely out of 4.2BSD User's Reference Manuals. Most of the pages for the 4.3BSD Manuals (which will be in seven [7] volumes, as opposed to the five [5] for 4.2BSD) have gone to the printer. The remainder should go late today or next Tuesday. We hope that 4.3BSD Manuals will be ready for shipping by 1 November (which should probably read 3 November, as the first is a Saturday). Full descriptions of contents, etc., will be in ;login:.
