  I am trying to get some more information on this project in detail (the
DDJ series appears to me more of an intro to UNIX than it is about the
actuall porting of BSD) and possibly the source. Despite a large number
of mailings to both 'william' and 'lynne', I have received no response
over the past three months.
  Anybody have any luck or information, post or e-mail. Thanx.
