Subject: Document treasure trove
While looking for DECnet documents, I noticed that there's a very
large collection at
http://manx.classiccmp.org/collections/antonio/dec/ . Probably not
news to many, but in case some had not seen it...
Among other things, there are two CD collections MDS-1997-10 and
MDS-2000-01. The former contains a rather obscure document, the
DECnet Phase IV Token Ring datalink spec. That also includes the
Phase IV routing layer tweaks necessary to support token ring -- or
other datalinks if you don't want to use the AA-00-04-00 prefix.

As the primary author of that document, I still have a hard copy
(available), and can answer any questions (if the neurons
remember) As well as a variety of other DECnet specs and
documents. Most of them were on the an HP site for awhile. I don't
know what survived the corporate split.
