Any interest in Alpha software/documentation from March 2003?

I just checked, DUSTY:: is up and running! It is directly connected to my network over a Multinet Tunnel. Use: $ dir dusty::axpbinmar031:[000000]*.dir to see what is in the first virtual volume then go from there... -Steve -----Original Message----- From: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] On Behalf Of H Vlems Sent: Monday, December 05, 2011 16:40 To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Subject: RE: [HECnet] Any interest in Alpha software/documentation from March 2003?

Sure. But a discreet http site which is not published will go under the radar.

That's what I was thinking Sampsa. OTOH Steve is quite right that we shouldn't rock the boat too much. Probably HP isn't interested in the media. But they are surely alerted if we'd trade licenses: which we don't (and never would). -----Original Message----- From: Sampsa Laine <sampsa at mac.com> Sender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Date: Sun, 04 Dec 2011 22:12:35 To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE<hecnet at Update.UU.SE> Reply-To: hecnet at Update.UU.SESubject: Re: [HECnet] Any interest in Alpha software/documentation from March 2003?
