Speaking of OSI stacks, I know 4.4BSD Lite came with

Unix world ever get beyond the 4.4BSD fragmentary implementation?
There was ISODE
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_Development_Environment)
I recall experimenting with it but didn't actually use it in anger.
I know that DEC/Compaq/HP Tru64 Unix (nee OSF/1) came with a OSI stack -
we had customers who wanted/used FTAM and I was surprised to find it
came with the OS.
