Subject: London and Reiser's UNIX VAX port paper, reconstructed

[CCing Warren for help with my usual problems mailing the TUHS list]

Hi folks,

I'm pleased to report that I've "finalized" my reconstruction of London
and Reiser's paper documenting the process of porting Seventh Edition
Unix to the VAX-11/780.

This effort started back in mid-2024, and drove numerous improvements to
groff's mm package.

You can find the reconstruction at GitHub, with a pre-rendered PDF under
"Released".

My thanks to everyone who helped; you're acknowledged in the paper
itself.  :)

Regards,
Branden
