Thanks. Grabbed. Those have most of the information I was missing being able to find
easily online: dates and version IDs for classic-3000 MPE releases. I wish I could still
get the discussion text that led up to them because they don?t entirely fit with my
memory.
The mid-1980s were kinda busy with MPE IV Q-MIT and its delta releases, which culminated
in MPE V/R for the Series II/III and 30/33 (I ran it on a Series III), and MPE V/P which
didn?t last very long, and then MPE V/E which had a future. Sometimes I have trouble
remembering what happened when. I don?t remember more than one MPE V/R release (E.01.00)
and it happened some time after MPE IV Q-Delta-2.

Likewise, there used to be an article about MPE
release history. Links I know for it are:
<http://community.hpe.com/t5/General/MPE-Release-History/td-p/4075425> (20 Aug
2014)
<http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/General/MPE-Release-History/td-p/4075425> (28 Apr
2016)
Naturally it?s been wiped, and archive.org *doesn?t* have a copy, even though they have
other pages under that t5/General directory in both cases.
I saved a copy in 2012. There are files attached to some of the posts in that forum
thread which collate the results and, amazingly, are still accessible:

Grab them while you still can.
