- Is anyone currently using a gopher system to connect users to a database
- application developed under oracle, progress, or other unix
- DBMS/development systems? What are you using? Is it possible for me to
- see your system? We have a number of SPIRES applications currently
- residing on an IBM mainframe that we need to move to unix. Our plan is to
- purchase a DBMS/development package for a DECstation, port each database,
- and then connect each application to our gopher menu. Any advice, hints
- or comments would be appreciated.
