[ih] Hello, Internet History group

[Gaige B. Paulsen]

Yep, InterCon’s products were built from the original work that Tim Krauskopf and I did on the TCP/IP stack for NCSA Telnet.
The original versions of NCSA Telnet (1985/1986) used an AppleTalk (LocalTalk) gateway that came out of Stanford (SEAGATE, the Stanford Ethernet-AppleTalk Gateway) and commercialized by Kinetics. Our SLIP implementation came quite a bit later, and the PPP implementation a bit later than that. I honestly don’t think we ever released a version of SLIP for the internal stack, only with MacTCP.
I’m happy to discuss any of the particulars of what we did back in the day.
I’m not sure if Kurt or Amanda are on the list here, but they’re definitely still around.
