in reply to It's FOSS • • •Those of us who were around using those early Unix systems can loudly attest that Unix was neither free nor open source. The AT&T licenses were rather heavy and strict.
My first Unix systems (Unix version 6 - mid 1970's at System Development Corporation - SDC - in Santa Monica) operated under a GFE (government furnished equipment) based license.
A bit later I was part of the company (Interactive Systems) that was able to do the first commercial Unix products based on the System III Unix license (and a variation license called "PWB" - printer? Work Bench?)
