Do you mean the ones that were in the jointly published USENIX/O'Reilly
5-Volume 4.4BSD docset?  

What's the copyright status on those papers?  I was overjoyed when I 
found all five volumes in one fell swoop a couple of years ago.  Would
it be possible to reprint them in their entirety today?  Would it be
possible to work with USENIX to produce an new version of something
similar and up-to-date?
