Hmm. I guess I misunderstood what PROFS is all about. From what people
have told me, there is no fully-interconnected set of sites running the
PROFS software; it sounds as if PROFS is only used within a particular
company, not to span company boundaries, and that you'd have to have a
gateway for each PROFS island. Is this correct?
(Although I read something about the X.400 people interfacing to PROFS...?)
