All that has happened is that a key verdict on one aspect of the case has been rendered. In all likelihood, Novel will likely end up on top, but until the litigation is actually over, they are unlikely to do anything.

From Wikipedia: UniFLEX is a Unix-like operating system developed by Technical Systems Consultants (TSC) for the Motorola 6809 family which allowed multitasking and multiprocessing. It was released for DMA-capable 8" floppy, extended memory addressing hardware (software controlled 4KiB paging), Motorola 6809 based computers. From http://www.swtpcemu.com/Downloads.htm A full distribution of UniFlex is available as tar.gz archives from this page. And the question is: Would it make sense to add UniFlex to the UNIX archives in the other subdirectory? And if so, wouldn't then also make sense to have Tropix as well? http://allegro.nce.ufrj.br/tropix/index.html Just a suggestion. I know strictly speaking these are no proper UNIX systems, but all the same they are independent implementations of the same basic philosophy much like Coherent, OMU, Xinu, Sprite, Minix and many others were. j -- EMBnet/CNB Scientific Computing Service Solving all your computer needs for Scientific Research. http://bioportal.cnb.csic.es http://www.es.embnet.org
