We had an Apollo presentation, given by Dave Nelson, one of
their Development VPs. He said that a gateway (to unspecified
other networks) was planned. Guess I would expect the initial
one to be to others of their (Domain) rings.
It was my impression that the basic network environment is
strictly message/packet oriented, without connections or other
efficiency mechanisms. Nelson pointedly stated (it was too
affirmative to class as an "admission") that they were not
oriented toward file transfers . Such things can and are done,
but the environment is not tuned to them.
