That's very odd.  When we tried to purchase an Ultrix 3.1 source license
at my school, in about 1990, they told us we weren't eligible unless we
first obtained an SVR2 (R3?) source license.  We had a 32V source license
but they said that wasn't good enough.

Is it truly O.K. to redistribute Ultrix 3.1 to 32V source licensees?
