[comp.sys.apollo] NCS source

I think, if Apollo wants this RPC to be a standard, that they
should not charge for the source.


Consider the facts: X windows is a standard because the source code
is given away, not that X is the best or most logical system available.
Unix is everywhere, not because Unix is the best, logical, or whatever
but because the source was at one time given away.


C'mon Apollo, take the lead, and let us all out here in user-land port
this to every machine we can get our hands on!
