- There is a discussion now taking place on DECUServe in the DECUSERVE_FORUM
- notefile regarding a News <> DECUServe gateway.
-
- The evolving thread seems to be heading to implementation in several
- phased steps, after which the results of the step would be evaluated
- before moving ot the next step. My best guess right now that the most
- likly implementation would be read only groups for a couple conferences
- as pilots (assuming of course, that anything at all gets approved).
-
- I'd like to start gathering current info on what notes-to-news software
- exists, and is in use.
-
- I'm aware of three; one is a version done by Dec; anyone know any
- contacts? I also am aware that someone did an implementation in
- Mumps; I also have crude version in DCL and FORTRAN. I'd like to
- identify the best software to implement this, while looking to the
- future of possibly adding the ability for subscriber or general
- posts (not necessarily there now, but doable in the future).
