Great anecdotes!  Great observations!  Keep 'em coming!
Anybody else with similarly useful information, be bold!

Since joining this newgroup, I have observed at least the following
issues in making news (or something like it) work as a means of
intra-organizataion communication:
    -	personal comfort with the electronic text
    -	personal comfort with the particular facility (news, notes, mail)
    -	management acceptance of the idea
    -	management support for the idea
    -	technical appropriateness of the facility w/r/t resources
	(available i-nodes, connectivity, etc)
Note that some are predicates for others.
I'm sure I've missed some.

Note that the "personal comfort" must be pretty much universal within
the org.  It can take as little as one person who isn't comfortable
with some aspect of the thing for the whole thing to fall apart --
if that person is crucial.
