A recent comment that I heard at a DECUS meeting was that the "upper crust" of
the DECUS leadership pays little attention to the network.  This is in sharp
contrast to other elements of DECUS (e.g. Unisig, Vax SIG, Library, DECUServe,
Etc.) which use the network as a source of information and as a means to
communicate.

I see postings from various elements of the DECUS leadership every day.  It's
funny how none of these postings come from board members.

Cheers,
