Hello Net:

I have a faculty at our university who is going to France for a year and
is wanting to be able to communicate with the states somehow.

She says that she'll have access to the "Mini-Tel" devices that are
common in homes in France (She'll be in Paris), and was wondering if it
is possible to communicate with BITNET and Internet users from that
device.

And, if it is possible, does anyone know how expensive it is to do that?

Otherwise, she will be affiliated with la Sorbonne Nouvelle, a
university in Paris.  Does anyone know if that University is connected
to the Internet in some way?

As I am not a regular reader of this list, I would appreciate it if you
would respond directly to me.  If anoyone is interested, I will be happy
to summarize the responses to the list.

Thanks in advance... fred
