	I talked to the publisher of MINIX {Prentice Hall} about the porting
of the software to other CPU's. Yes -- they do have some rights on the
source code... On the other hand, he person I talked to said that they want to
be reasonable.
	After some friendly discussion, it was my impression that they
were feeling their way, and would be willing to:

		1) Ask NO MORE than the $80.00 that they are asking for the
source code to have the source code and/or run MINIX or a derived system 
on a CPU. {I felt that this was reasonable since thay, and the author, have
done a lot of work} Thus if someone ports MINIX to a CPU, then other people
could use it, and the utilities after paying this royality. P.S. they seem
to be willing to permit a person to make a few copies  at no charge for
"educational" purposes.

		2) Discuss "volume" arrangements to possibly reduce this
royality further under the "right" conditions.

	As I understand it, the book will be out "real soon now" and it
will be possible to get the source code in a few months. If it is good
code, and can be ported to other CPU's, than I believe i might well be 
the basis of a Share-Ware UNIX type system.
