Also Devon; (1) 1985 Sharp APL/HP implemented on HP-UX by Arthur Whitney, Rob Hodgkinson, Laurie Gellatly (not a 'sanctioned' system by IPSA but it was a 100% implementation of Sharp APL and was sold commercially so I believe should still list).
Papers: APL86 Manchester "Practical Uses of Operators in Sharp APL/HP" APL87 Dallas "APL Procedures (user defined operators, functions and token strings)" APL88 Sydney Tutorials (2) kdb+ k with SQL support and functionality q language built upon k * but I am unsure of the exact release dates of (2) - perhaps Chris Burke or Roger Hui might help ?
