[HECnet] Is this the most up to date version of DECnet OS numbers?

I was in touch with Lars recently, talking with him about putting Chaosnet back into the PANDA distribution as a number of programs (such as the mailer and FTP) know how to use it.? I also wanted to put the VTS (SUPDUP) service back in, too. I've spent some looking at the code and I believe there were two different Tops-20 implementations, one for the KL which ran on XX and EECS and /maybe/ another that ran on the 2020.? ITS uses that hardware configuration.? I don't remember anything about OZ, I don't think it was on the 9th floor, at least not when I was hanging out there. I'm not sure if the IBMSPL software had extensive usage.? Earlier versions of it were /very/ cantankerous, but it improved.? I knew one of the authors at Marlboro (K. Reti) who I thought was one of the more brightest bulbs I had come across.? Columbia used IBMSPL extensively, but not for the reasons you'd think. In addition to routing CCnet (DECnet) email to the ARPAnet, we also routed the _entirety_ of BITnet, which was a 'network' of IBM mainframes that sent email to each other.? It wasn't SNA, they all looked like RJE workstations and 'punched' card decks of email to each other.? I think our news feed may have come through IBMSPL too. In other words, that particular software was beat on day and night and eventually functioned quite competently.? I keep thinking about putting that up, too, although I don't know how I'd get the PDP-11 code working (or what it might talk to) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 11/7/21 7:02 PM, Peter Lothberg wrote:
