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:
