Paul and I had this discussion before about 12 years ago on Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=RSTS-11&action=history

I believe RSTS-11 V4A-12 was probably given the name Mini-Rsts-11
by the marketing department (somewhat the same as MicroRSTS later).
MicroRSTS was a pregenned distribution with exactly the same code
that came on the distribution tapes, starting with RSTS/E V8.0-06.
There are many references to MicroRSTS, but I have only seen 2 for
Mini-Rsts (below is a link for our colleges RSTS-11 receipt).

I know that this original distribution was V4A-12 so the name was
probably dropped by the time RSTS/E V5A-21 was released eight (8)
months later.
