minor patch for uvm(9) :- - remove redundant sentence about misc functions - note that pmap(9) is the MD portion of UVM. - Convert reference to Chuck's dissertation to .Rs/.Re section - uvm is no longer "new". - Remove "(Missouri)". St. Louis should be enough to remove any confusion between wustl.edu and washington.edu.
