---------------

  The following information is based on a handout called "Newflash", dated
  5/17.  I saw a pile sitting outside a lab manager's desk, but I really 
  don't know the source.

  "Technologies being considered by the foundation include:

     "- HP's National Language Support (NLS)

     "- Apollo's Network Computing System (NCS) (tm)

     "- Bull's UNIX system-based multiprocessor architecture

     "- Digital's user interface tool kit and style guides for the
        X Window System (tm)

     "- Nixdorf's relational database technology

     "- Siemen's OSI protocol support"

   "To provide a clear and each migration..., the foundation's system will
   include features to support current System V- and Berkeley-based UNIX
   applications.  The operating systems will use core technology from a
   future version of IBM's AIX (tm) as a development base."
