Hello,
	I am involved in a high-speed networking project.  I have
    implemented a simplified version of NETBLT (RFC 998), and I
    have been using it for the past year.  Now I am interested in
    finding out if anyone else out there has worked on it.  I am
    also looking to contact the authors: David D. Clark, Mark L. Lambert,
    and Lixia Zhang.  There were at MIT in 1987.

	With our custom networking hardware, two Sun-3s can converse at
    2.5 Mbyte/sec with 1K packets.  The primary bottleneck here is the
    VMEbus.  We are looking to extend this protocol to our new hardware
    that sits directly on a 80 Mbyte/sec network.

	Any information would be appreciated.  Thanks
