Subject: PDP-11 UNIX Src Licenses Available
Hello, you are receiving this mail for one of the following reasons:
+ you signed a petition urging SCO to make source licenses for
PDP-11 UNIX available
+ your filled in a survey detailing what you wanted in such a
source license
+ you are a member of the PUPS mailing list
I am glad to announce that, as a result of the petition, SCO have made
source licenses available for most versions of PDP-11 UNIX. The essential
details of the license are:
Covers research Editions 1 to 7, and 32V.
Covers derived versions of UNIX which ran on PDP-11s.
Specifically excludes System V onwards.
Full source code, binaries and documentation.
Personal, non-commercial use.
Exchange of sources and modifications to other licensees.
Non-disclosure to unlicensed people.
The cost is US$100. Details on how to obtain the license are available at
http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/getlicense.html
SCO will not ship any media with this license. The PDP-11 Unix Preservation
Society has a number of volunteers who are prepared to cut CD-ROMs and tapes
in order to distribute the PUPS Archive of old Unix software to licensed
people. Details about this archive are available at
http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/pupsfaq.html
We would like a few more licensed people to volunteer to create CD-ROMs and
tapes, to take the load off the existing volunteers.
Finally, none of this would have been possible without the immense support
which we received from Dion Johnson within SCO. He battled with the legal
eagles over a period of 18 months or so to make the license available. If
you can, please send Dion a thank you card at the address
The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc.
400 Encinal Street
Santa Cruz, CA 95061-1900
United States of America
Attention: Dion Johnson
This will be a surprise for him, but I'm sure he will appreciate your
thanks.
In turn, I would like to thank you all for your support. Without the
signatures on the petition, none of this would have been possible.

Most of you on the PUPS mailing list should have received notice that SCO
are now selling the PDP-11 Unix source licenses we have been waiting so long
for. If not, details are on the PUPS web page, and at:
http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/getlicense.html
We only have 6 volunteers ready to write media (CDs, tapes) holding the
archive of PDP-11 Unix material. Anybody else want to volunteer?
SCO will let us set up password-protected ftp sites. I will set up the
PUPS archive here for password-protected ftp. Would anybody else be prepared
to mirror this and also provide password-protected ftp? I'd like one
in the US and one in Europe.
Cheers all,
Warren

welcome boon to those of us who still run UNIX from SCO.

A good idea, but...
I hate to appear obtuse, but this doesn't tell me either. Are you
saying I should sign where it says "By"?

No, just fill in the top section. Leave the `by' section alone, as you
ARE your own representative.
The only time you'd fill out the bottom section is if you were buying
a license for a company, e.g
Sproggs Inc.
5 Looney road,
SPOTSWOLD. NSW. 2001
by
Warren Toomey
etc etc etc.
Hope this helps.

Greg,
Since none of the responses seem to really answer your question,
here's what I did:
I signed my name on the very first line where it says "Name".
I then printed my name on the line where it says "Print or Type Name".
If this is incorrect, I guess I'll get it back!
