Hello:
We run 4.2 bsd. We'd like to run 'S', if possible.
Is this possible ? Is anyone doing it ? Have you had problems ?
Did it take long to port the software ?
Did it take long to fix the licenses & make the lawyers happy ?
If you've had problems, were they with S, or S & 4.2 ?
Could you fix them ? with or without major trauma ?
Was S been worth it ?
( n.b. we run SAS & SPSS-X on IBM mainframe,
various DEC packages on VAX-VMS.
comparisions, contrasts, etc. would be welcome.)
As usual, will summarize if enough interest.
Hope this isn't a repeat of recent activity -
if so please send summary.

p.s. Sorry about multiple newsgroups - checked Adam's list,
but wasn't clear if usoft.s was active, defunct, or whatever.
