re:
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2017d.html#75 Mainframe operating system?

After Houston, many of the HASP went to gburg group to do HASP->JES2,
however one of the HASP people to Harrison and did RASP (sort of a
virtual memory MFT II) ... mentioned in this discssuion about decision
to make all 370s virtual memory
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2011d.html#73

as mentioned, RASP lost out, he leaves and becomes a Amdahl "Fellow" and
redoes (clean room) RASP (at one point IBM sues even tho IBM wouldn't
doing anything with it, IBM code review only finds a couple lines
similar that have to be redone).

There is unsuccesful effort to convince IBM to hire univ. student that
did 370 UNIX port ... and he goes with Amdahl doing what becomes UTS
(original code name "gold" ... for "AU" ... amdahl unix).

TSS/370 group is still lingering on and they get involved with AT&T
effort to do 370 unix. Rather than doing a straight unix port to 370,
they do a stripped down TSS/370 "SSP" that handles all the low level 370
hardware & device gorp ... with higher levels of UNIX layered on top.

At monthly user group "BAYBUNCH" meetings in silicon valley, some of the
Amdahl people like telling stories of what is going on. For awhile there
is a bottle going on between RASP-redo group and the GOLD group. I
recommend why don't they try a merge like the TSS/360 SSP for AT&T unix.

Another 370 operating system is GNOSIS a 370 operating system done by
TYMSHARE specifically targeted at online service bureau operation ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOSIS

i've mentioned being brought into audit/review GNOSIS for its spinoff
after M/D buys TYMSHARE. ... after spinoff, they do some optimization
and redo some ACP/TPF applications and show them running faster in
KeyKOS that originals did in ACP/TPF (on same hardware) recent posts
