Community Memory: Discussion List on the History of Cyberspace ______________________________________________________________________

John Lions, the importer of UNIX to Australia, and the author of the Commentary on V6 that has been called ``the best book on how an operating system works,'' by Ken Thompson, died on Saturday, 5 December.
John had been quite ill for nearly five
years.
He was a fine teacher and a good friend.
