[net.unix-wizards] In search of the mythical 2.9

sean@garfield.UUCP (Sean Byrne) (01/29/84)

Well, we've all stopped asking/yelling/complaining about
when the **** is 4.2.   Most of us have it by now.

And now we've reached that time again when we must all
shout "Hey, where the **** is 2.9?"  You know, that Berkeley
operating system for small Pdp 11's ???  If my long term memory
serves me correctly, it was supposed to have been here last
... sometime last March I do believe.  Anyway if any of you
out there do hear anything about it (rumors/malicious lies)
please let me know.  Thanks.

At UniSnorum, Berkeley representatives were heard to say:

	1. No further work is being done on 2.9.

	2. As-is tapes should start being shipped at once.

[Please do not jump to conclusions about whether I *believe* #2.  I'm
just reporting what was said.]
