When I was at Texas Tech and installed WYL 9.0 the manuals had the ACS logo at the bottom and the title page said ACS Wylbur. I remembered thinking when did ACS get into the software business? I knew EDS had marketed some software products -- anyone remember WAPPDSUT, WAAPSPLT, SAC, etc.

They were never involved. EDS bought OSI and later spun off SSI. I've cc'd one of the developers and perhaps he can give you a blow-by-blow history of the various splits, including the Borgelt-Fajman split. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
