-  -  Get all the sources missing from the PI distribution (and from Alan's archive) So far, I'm looking in particular for TURNIP;READER, SPACY;NETRTN and SPACY;LSRRTN (this is actually **done** now, by EJS!). It seems some EMACS sources are missing too (e.g. PURIFY). (The sources of :DATE aren't among PI, AI or MC sources, but Paul Svensson has them.)+  -  DONE through the [[https://github.com/PDP-10/its|Github repo]]: Get all the sources missing from the PI distribution (and from Alan's archive).

   -  The "Fair share" is very wrong. The "host" device (idling the kn10 process in the null job) seems to be the root of this. There is very little idle/lost time on an ITS system under klh10 with the host device+patch. If this is disabled, the fair share and idle time works better. See also [[http://up.update.uu.se/idleup|notes here]].   -  The "Fair share" is very wrong. The "host" device (idling the kn10 process in the null job) seems to be the root of this.

-In the movie [[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0244244/|Swordfish]] (Jackman, Travolta, Berry), the hacker played by Jackman connects to an ITS system in the basement of Caltech to retrieve his worm. In [[http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Swordfish.html|the script]], the ITS machine is at MIT, which is surprisingly well written by the author, Skip Woods. Would anyone know how he would know about ITS? Would anyone have a guess why the machine was moved to Caltech in the movie? +In the movie [[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0244244/|Swordfish]] (Jackman, Travolta, Berry), the hacker played by Jackman connects to an ITS system in the basement of Caltech to retrieve his worm (scene starting [[https://youtu.be/0a21sS5yuTA?feature=shared&t=3112|at 51:52 in the movie]]).
