Hard to say. The source files don't have copyright headers on them at all, but there
is an "apl11s.doc" file with a DEC copyright; it seems to be a

I was just wandering through some old disk images
and spotted something I missed for years: a directory holding what looks like a set of
source files and build scripts for APL-11.
I have no idea where this came from or why I have it; while I have used APL I have not
used it on a PDP-11, nor ever installed it.
Is this something others already have that is a known to be good version, or should I go
dig through this and verify it, then archive it properly?
I would imagine it is the one distributed by DECUS. I have a copy here
somewhere but I, too, never got around to getting it working. And, yes,
I know and have used APL on a number of different machines.
