After some 18 years of service, the DND-H Multics system will shut down on
or about 1100 Atlantic Standard Time 31 Oct. 2000. All of the unique
applications we wrote for it have been moved over to a series of Unix, Linux
and even NT servers. It survived the Year 2000 switchover, and now it's
time to move on.

Sic transit historia multicis...
