Just got this email from a friend...

----- Forwarded message from David Blackman -----

Just had a quick look at [Warren's Unix family tree diagram]
You list Research V8 as successor to V7, which is true i guess, but
i've seen several sources say most of the kernel was derived from a BSD
version, probably 4.1.

Can anybody confirm or deny this? I suppose I should ask Dennis.

Ta,
	Warren
