HP-UX 12.0

[Andrew Kaplan]

Hi there -- Does anyone have any information, if there is any, on HP-UX 12.0? Thanks.

[Steven E. Protter]

Next release will be called

hp-ux 11i v3

due in early 2006.

I think there are marketing reasons for the current naming system plus the possible desire not to ever come out with hp-ux 13.0

Who here is triskaidekaphobic?

[Geoff Wild]

Off topic but:

triskaidekaphobia \tris-ky-dek-uh-FOH-bee-uh\, noun:
a morbid fear of the number 13 or the date Friday the 13th
--triskaidekaphobic, adjective and noun; triskaidekaphobe, noun

Thirteen people, pledged to eliminate triskaidekaphobia, fear of the number 13, today tried to reassure American sufferers by renting a 13 ft plot of land in Brooklyn for 13 cents... a month.
--Daily Telegraph, January 14, 1967

A discussion in the U.N. last week on the number of members on a committee raised the question of triskaidekaphobia.
--New York Times, November 8, 1953

Past disasters linked to the number 13 hardly help triskaidekaphobics overcome their affliction. The most famous is the Apollo 13 mission, launched on April 11, 1970 (the sum of 4, 11 and 70 equals 85 - which when added together comes to 13), from Pad 39 (three times 13) at 13:13 local time, and struck by an explosion on April 13.
--"It's just bad luck that the 13th is so often a Friday," Electronic Telegraph, September 8, 1996
