   I have a version of a talk program that works for Sys V if anyone
wants it.  It is limited to one host and was written in June 1985.
I make no claims to how good it is since I haven't looked at it
since December '85.

	I also have a written 'talk' for SysV. It went through
mutil-site beta testing last November. The trouble is there is
one nagging bug in the deamon that refuses to die. If I can ever
kill this bug, 'talk' will go to mod.sources.
