|  This weeks issue of _INFOWORLD_ says that the OSF has licensed UNIX System V
|release 2 (V.2) AND licensed UNIX System V.3 from AT&T.
|
|  I applaud the move by OSF since it means streams and a number of other nice
|features of V.3 will be more generally available.  Since HP and DEC are part
|of OSF it should mean that they will finally move from their bases (4.x BSD &
|System V.2 respectively).  

HP has had a V.3 source license for slightly over a year.
