I have just subscribed to this group and unfortunately I have to ask
the standard question: Where can i get the latest version of pcip (and
docs)? I have been given a version if pcip but the person who gave it to
me cant remember where he got it from! Secondly it had no docs so i
found a site (eventually) which did have some doco (husc6.harvard.edu) but
they looked ancient (ie circa 1986).
So, is PCIP still maintained/updated? Or have all the people left to work
for FTP Inc.?
Thanx for your time,
Steve

The PC/IP project at MIT ended well before FTP Software was founded, although I continued hacking on the code somewhat even though that wasn't my job at MIT. Several people who were involved in the original project ended up helping found the company, or joining it later, but the project didn't end because FTP started. Many people outside of MIT (most notably Drew Perkins and Dan Lanciani) have helped maintain PC/IP in later years, but there hasn't much of an organized effort to maintain and update it after the original project ended. - john romkey Epilogue Technology USENET/UUCP/Internet: romkey@asylum.sf.ca.us FAX: 415 594-1141

PC-IP started out at MIT. At the time John Romkey and Dave Bridgham left MIT to help found FTP Software, Drew Perkins at CMU had already embarked on his own development thread, which included converting it from the MIT cross-compiled version to Microsoft C 3.0. When Drew moved on to other pursuits, Dan Lanciani (working at Harvard at the time) took a crack at it. It is Dan's version that is on husc6.harvard.edu. I can't predict if he will do another release, or if not, to whom the torch will be passed.... James B.
