re:

a little source x-over from zVM mailing list

MODS)

MODS)

internally, there was similar collection of mods ... analogous to what
waterloo did for share. in the dawn of the oco-period ... there was a
study done of both the waterloo share tape and the internal repository
... one of the summaries was the approx. size of collected new/changes
was the same for the two respositories ... and the features provided
were approx. the same (even tho they were two independent communities).

the online vm (vmshare) service (provided by tymshare, vm370 platform
online commercial timesharing service bureau, starting nov76)
... provided community communication analogous to what is found in the
mailing lists and usenet (that came along later). vmshare archive

and a little x-over bringing in a little of issues raised in the COTS
thread
