[NTLUG:Discuss] It's Getting better - Here's Dennis Ritchie his self

Now I know for sure that SCO isn't reading Groklaw in detail, or they'd 
know better than to claim only 16-bit and only noncommercial. I wrote 
about this on July 14, so they could have saved themselves some 
embarrassment, had they read what I wrote about this very subject.

They did release it under a noncommerical use license, and they also 
later released it under a BSD-like license, as we saw in the letter. 
Neither license was restricted to 16-bit only. I found proof on this 
subject, which I sent to Dennis Ritchie back in July, because he had a 
broken link on his UNIX history page, which my research made it possible 
to fix, despite SCO having removed some historical materials about the 
Ancient UNIX release, and despite the material no longer being available 
through Google or Wayback.
