I know that RT-11 is under license from Mentec

No, you don't.  Mentec has not existed for many years now.  The remains
of the PDP-11 intellectual property have been in the hands of XX2247 for
several years.

True.

Yup.

Then again, if someone had a Mentec license, that would still be good unless it 
had some expiration clause.

Yup. And I know of places that do have Mentec licenses.

I wonder if the Mentec hobbyist general license letter is still in force.  I 
would assume so unless it has been withdrawn.

That license should still be in effect, but there are more general problems with that license, which are a different story that I'm sure you know about.
