I know that I've kept HECnet at a very low profile for a long time, but maybe a little exposure would be positive? Or people prefer us to remain secret?
I do from time to time tell about MIM, but I'm not saying much about any other system, or HECnet in general.

I like this idea. It would be fun to expose more people to DECnet in
a "not corporate" environment.

Did you forget UP.Update.UU.SE ?
Victor must have had some sort of image to set it UP :)
Doh! My memory is short. :-)

Very nice!
Here is something you might find interesting (or, what I did two weeks ago):

I think the disk images from AI were preserved, but I think that because
of all the guest accounts and so on, they have never been spread.
Which is weird, because for quite a while, the complete snapshots of
both AI and MC were available for anonymous FTP (and of course there was
no file protection on ITS while there were still live machines). So I
understand the retroactive motivation, but that horse was never even IN
the barn.
Oh, I agree. I never considered my files on AI to be secret either, and wouldn't mind if someone found them.
But I know I have read about that concern, when it comes to the images of AI. They didn't have the formal approval of the people owning all those files, so they would need to scrub the images before anything could be made available. I think it has partly been a question of making any ITS disk image available for people who want a running system. I don't know what the status is these days. Are there any ITS disk images around so that people could install it on an emulator?
There is this one:
