GENERAL INFORMATION ON 4.2 BUGLISTS FROM MT XINU
MT XINU has completed the first round of summarizing known 4.2bsd
bug reports. This is an ongoing effort; further summaries will
follow.
The current summary has been derived from reports submitted to
4bsd-bugs@BERKELEY (not from reports submitted only to
net.bugs.4bsd, for example). All reports on file at Berkeley as
of 23 March 84 have been reviewed.
Bug lists now being distributed are essentially "raw". No judg-
ment has been passed as to whether the submitted bug is real or
not or whether it has been fixed. Only minimal editing has been
done to produce a manageable list. Reports which are complaints
(rather than bug reports) have been eliminated; obscenities and
content-free flames have been eliminated; and duplicates have
been combined. The resulting collection contains over 300 bugs.
Three versions of the list are now ready for distribution:
2-Liners:
Two lines per bug, including a concise description, the af-
fected module, the submittor. Approximately 42K bytes, it
was distributed to net.sources on 24 April 84.
Abstracts:
The 2-Liner + approximately a paragraph of description per
bug. About 200K bytes, it will be distributed to
net.sources in chunks of about 50K bytes around 1 May 84.
The Public Collection:
All our material, except that all but the most inocuous of
source material has been removed to meet AT&T license res-
trictions. Hundreds of K bytes, this will be distributed to
net.sources in several 50K byte pieces during May 84.
Please note that local usenet size restrictions may prevent large
files from being received and/or retransmitted. MT XINU will not
dump this material on the net a second time; if your site has not
received material of interest to you within a reasonable time,
please send for a paper copy.
If you want a paper copy of the three lists, send mail to:

--FOR SOURCE LICENSEES--
Holders of source licenses for 32V, System II or System V can ob-
tain a tape containing all the material, including proposed
source fixes where such were submitted. Once again, MT XINU has
not evaluated, tested or passed judgment on proposed fixes; all
we have done is organize the collection and eliminate obvious ir-
relevancies and duplications.
To receive a tape, send a check for $110 or a purchase order for
$150 to cover MT XINU's costs to the address given above (Cali-
fornia orders add sales tax). You MUST include with your order a
copy of the cover page, the serial number sheet and the signature
page of your AT&T source license agreement. You MUST specify
shipment to the institution or entity named as the source license
holder. Please give us a street address, not a post office box.
Orders which do not meet these requirements will be returned
unprocessed.
