Probably an extremely frequently asked question, but searching didn't
seem to bring anything up.
What is the current status of PDP-11 O/S software? USENET seems to
indicate that there is no non-commercial license, yet the simh website
has some of them available for download, with the license file having a
clause that states that it is valid for emulators owned by DEC (??),
and also seems to indicate that RSX-11 is covered, yet RSX-11 isn't
available.
Mentec's site isn't very helpful, all they talk about are Windows
programs and it is so full of features as to be practically unusable on
dialup.
Any quick rundowns on the status anywhere?
