I just read the announcement in mod.newprod about Andy Tanenbaum's
new book and the MINIX system.  MINIX is apparently a V7 UNIX clone and
is available in source form along with the book from Prentice-Hall.  It
includes lots of utilities (from ar through wc :-), including a C compiler.

Now, does anyone want to form a working group to port this to the Amiga?
How about you guys at the Software Distillery?
