First of all, MDQS was developed at BRL, not BBN.

Next, NQS started as modifications to MDQS at a national lab,
and was "borrowed" by outside contractors who conveniently
forgot that it wasn't theirs and now claim that it is.  I
don't know what's supposed to be "better" about NQS.

You can still get MDQS from BRL.  We use it all the time for
multi-queue, multi-device spooling on our campus-area network.
