All, several years back Mike Mahoney interviewed several of the original
Unix players for a Unix oral history. The transcripts are at:
http://www.princeton.edu/~hos/mike/transcripts/
At the time AT&T were going to release these in audio format, but it seems
to have fizzled out. Does anybody know if the audio interviews ever got out?
The transcripts are fine, but in places they show "(unclear)" when a word
or name is used, and of course it's exactly that name you want to find out.
Many thanks for any leads.

I would track down "~hos" at Princeton to see if they have them.
Mike's papers went to the Charles Babbage Institute at the University of Minnesota
http://special.lib.umn.edu/findaid/xml/cbi00213.xml
you could check there as well.
I'll also forward this to the SIGCIS mailing list

msg I forwarded to Warren:
Mike Mahoney originally did these interviews in collaboration with Bell Labs, and the
AT&T Archives
held the original cassette tapes. I recall seeing them back when I was at the AT&T
Archives.
But I don't believe that AT&T ever released the recordings.
