Any chance you could get info on the RP02 clone? I found the fact that
they used something like that as a disk rather interesting. I'm curious as
to if it used a disk pack or a fixed disk.
With the emulators that are now available, it would be really cool if PULSE
could be made publically available. I've no idea as to who owns the rights
to it though (don't know if the book indicates, I've not delved deep in it
yet).

PULSE. The development was apparently done on
the VAX, and
cross-compiled for the PDP-11/23. The book in question is "PULSE: An
Ada-based Distributed Operating System".
Ian Wand has just retired from Computer Science at York, but Andy
Wellings is still there. I'll ask Andy about that... CompSci had
Vaxen and unibus 11's (I've got one of them), but I didn't know they
ever had any small QBus machines.
