Version 1, release 2 of POSTGRES is now available for
distribution. It runs on Versions 3.4, 3.5, or 3.6 of SUN
OS for Sun 3/xxx class machines and on DECstation 3100
machines. The Lisp code has been entirely converted to C
and POSTGRES now consists of about 150,000 lines of C code.
If you would like the current system, you can get it in
one of two ways:
(1) Send a check payable to the Regents of the University
of California for $150.00 to:
Sharon Wensel
521 Evans Hall
University of California
Berkeley, CA 94720.
Indicate in your accompanying letter whether you want
the system on a 9-track tape at 1600 BPI, at 6250 BPI,
on a cartridge tape for SUN shoeboxes (QIC 24 format),
or on a TK50 DEC cartridge tape.
(2) FTP the code to your site over the ARPA net by typing
the following bracketed text without brackets. You
should see similar output.
