As luck would have it I was reading your guide fairly recently. I'm
probably the exception on this list; my main interest in simh is for the
occasional "wild hairs" I get to see how far I can get the old BSDs
running.
Thank you for putting that up!

If it's of interest to anyone (and I appreciate you are mostly VMS
folks, as indeed am I some of the time) I did put up some stuff for
installing a late fork of 4.3BSD (which qualifies as vintage UNIX).

And if you have an 11/03, 11/20 or similar, there's Mini-UNIX.

Currently, after the current hobby license expire, your options are to
either become a pirate or to learn to love vintage Unix. Of course
this is almost two years in the future: things could end up changing
in that time.

To be clear: this license expires in Dec 2021? What are the options
for simh users after that?

mine ends in 301.
Hari from the HPE OpenVMS customer lab is the administrator of the
hobbyist program. He once told me that he maintains the program
only out-of-hours and in his own time. Without his efforts the
programme may have ended sooner.
Be sure to thank him when you renew.
The email you receive with the PAKs should have your Hobbyist ID on
it. These are tracked. The final PAKs look like the authorization
code is a date to me (pakgened on March 1st).
