[TUHS] In Memoriam: J.F.Ossanna

[Donald ODona]

Joe sold the (not really existent) UNIX system to the patent department of AT&T, which in turn bought the urgently needed PDP11. Without that there would be no UNIX. Without Joe there would be no UNIX.

> We lost J.F. Ossanna on this day in 1977; he had a hand in developing 
> Unix, and was responsible for "roff" and its descendants.  Remember him, 
> the next time you see "jfo" in Unix documentation.
