RSTS/E will celebrate its 20th birthday at the Spring 90
DECUS Symposium in New Orleans during the week of May 6.
Sessions during the symposia will begin with a RSTS V4A
ANNOUNCEMENT and follow the evolution of the "heart" of
DEC operating systems with the BEST AND WORST OF SPRs.
There will be a special program Wednesday evening featuring
past and current developers of RSTS and members of the user
community that have contributed to the success of RSTS during
the past 20 years.
Admission to the Wednesday evening event is open to all with
the purchase of a $25 ticket. The party will start at 7:30 pm and
dinner will be served at 8:00 pm.
Tickets may be purchased with the Symposium Registration Form
or if space is still available, on-site at the DECUS store.
Registration for DECUS is not required for this special event.
Awards will include serious door prizes as well as special
awards that will be presented by RSTS's own BOZO.
Come help "SHARE" in commemorating "the" DEC operating system
of choice (over "TIME"). Re-live experiences of the operating
system that captured the "HEARTS" of the people, produced
applications in the White House, and migrated from New England
back across the waters to the UK and beyond.

I'm very sorry I'll miss this. Is there anybody here reading news who is helping to organize this event? I would like to share _The Ballad of RSTS/E_ and _The DCL Blues_ with the folks at the party, perhaps a taped performance. peace. -- Ed "I've been indirected and abbreviated, lexical functed and symbol substituted."

I'll certainly be there. Send your stuff along and I'll pass it on to the organizers. Good to hear from the old crowd. I'm sure we'll have lots to talk about. Martin. minow@thundr.enet.dec.com
