  I know something about Hermes.  I worked at Burroughs' San Diego Research
Center, and participated in its design, to a limited degree.  When Burroughs
closed SDRC in 1984, Hermes (and some of our Multibus-enhanced Liliths) were
given to, I believe, U. Virginia.  I suspect that Hermes is quite dead by now.

  It was a message-passing, real-time operating system, implemented 99.9% in
Modula-2.  There was a heavily edited article about it in the August 1984
issue of BYTE magazine.  What else would you like to know?
