| Shutdown originated in 6th edn (maybe 5th) UNSW (pdp-11) unix,
|
| At one stage it had (in comments in the source) our names all neatly
| lined up ...
|
| Ian Johnstone
| K. Robert Elz
| William N Joy
Turns out I didn't remember the format as well as I thought, it was
actually ...
* Ian Johnstone, Sydney, 1977
* Robert Elz, Melbourne, 1978
* Peter Lamb, Melbourne, 1980
* William Joy, Berkeley, 1981
* Michael Toy, Berkeley, 1981
* Dave Presotto, Berkeley, 1981
The neat alignment I remembered was still there though, and the final
mis-alignment (and then this stuff was all deleted a little later).
It was added Feb 1981, 4.1BSD was June 1981, so shutdown was in 4.1
(and the man page SCCS file confirms that as well, the 4.1 and 4.2 man
pages both appear there.)
| till someone else in CSRG (one of the Keith's I suspect) modified it more,
Keith Bostic did get at it, the log says "complete rewrite", but that
was later, 1988, after 4.3, so would have been for Tahoe or Reno.
