    Q) What is the purpose of alt.os.multics?
    A) This group is for the discussion of the Multics operating
    system. Discussion sometimes strays to other topics of
    interest to Multicians, e.g.
    - Honeywell hardware architecture
    - CTSS, DTSS and other ancestors
    - Honeywell management mistakes and if-onlys
    - PRIMOS, GCOS Timesharing, UNIX, and other cousins
    and descendants
    For discussions of the history of other operating
    systems, try alt.folklore.computers or the groups
    dedicated to these systems.
