Hi Michael.  Can you provide references for this?  I've long believed that
IOS was a derivative of BSD unix.  I've just RTFMed on it and to be honest
haven't found any evidence either way.

On a different topic, I played with QNX a bit some years ago but hadn't
looked at it in ages.  I just took the time to come up to speed a bit on
developments in the QNX world and there have been quite a few.
