Hello! Dave M spoke up first, but, ah, we'd need to see about what happens next. What's involved in reading the fiche, and making physical, read printed copies of it? I know they do that on Bit Savers, but I'd never asked them about it. Incidentally they are still packaged in shrink wrapped plastic and the box is stuffed with papers from the sender, it was a fellow who worked or still works for the Toronto mass transit authorities. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."

As the team lead for the IBM CIO's z/VM squad, and the curator of the Classical Computing Laboratory at IBM Poughkeepsie, I most certainly would want it if nobody else takes it.

Hello! One of the people on the regular Z/VM list many years ago had a copy of the Fiche behind VM/ESA (I do not know what version), this is the entire source code reduced to Fiche. Would the actual VCF offices in NJ want these? Failing that does anyone on the list want these? Please note that the box is a heavy one.
Oh and the wandering dino is currently asleep inside the (new) warehouse area. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
