All,
	I've received this e-mail from a student at NYU Law Department.
If any of you have copies of old Unix licenses, and your organisation
would be prepared to release copies to Greg, could you contact him.

Also, if you could send me copies of your licenses, that would be
great too. About 8 people have already done this, and I am happy to
act as a repository for this old information.

Cheers,
	Warren

Peter Salus identified you as the collector of old Unix versions, so I
thought you might be able to help me with a project I am working on.
I am studying the legal history of Unix for a colloquium at NYU, and I
would really love to see copies of the old Unix licenses that the various
universities signed. Do you happen to have access to any of these? All I
can find are the transcribed tape labels from your archive which say things
like "subject to the software agreement you have with Western Electric."
Thanks! And thank you also for pushing to make the source code available.
That has been an immeasurable help.
