Naming

The article is called "Unix System 1". Wouldn't this more conventionally be called "Unix V1" or "1st edition"? Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 07:36, 24 August 2021 (CEST)

Probably, but we'd need to do some research to see what it was called contemporaneously. Or maybe there wasn't a clear naming system back then for the various really early versions (the PDP-7 one, the first PDP-11/2O one, etc). In which case we should go with whatever the Unix history community has adopted - if they have one! Maybe I should ask on the TUHS list. Jnc (talk) 09:46, 24 August 2021 (CEST)
