I couldn't find the document I was looking for, but I'm pretty sure 
the info it contained went into the following doc.
http://www.aracnet.com/~healyzh/PDP-10_11_OS_xref(V2b).pdf

Also I show that RSTS V6B came out in 1977.

At least the following versions of DECnet/E still exist; 2.0, 2.1, 
4.0, and 4.1.  I've found mention of DECnet/E 4.2, but I don't 
believe it was ever released, and V4.1 works on RSTS/E V10.1.  IIRC, 
DECnet/E V4.1 is "DECnet Phase III".
