I don't know about a DECUS tar, but I have a Public Domain tar for VMS
from Sid Penstone at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. I have used it
with *no* problems for moving from a VMS 4.5 machine to a BSD4.3 VAX and back.
If anyone out there needs a copy, they can drop me a line and I'll send it
out (specify preferred format please!).
