The love of preservation for their code is admirable. Thanks to @softwareheritage.org , these local care practices have become a worldwide common goal and #openscience infrastructure.
The first edition of Unix was released internally at Bell Labs #OTD in 1971. Dennis Ritchie, Ken Thompson, et al started working on it in 1969.
