There is a discussion now taking place on DECUServe in the DECUSERVE_FORUM
notefile regarding a News <> DECUServe gateway.

The evolving thread seems to be heading to implementation in several
phased steps, after which the results of the step would be evaluated
before moving ot the next step.  My best guess right now that the most
likly implementation would be read only groups for a couple conferences
as pilots (assuming of course, that anything at all gets approved).

I'd like to start gathering current info on what notes-to-news software
exists, and is in use.  

I'm aware of three;  one is a version done by Dec;  anyone know any 
contacts?  I also am aware that someone did an implementation in
Mumps;  I also have  crude version in DCL and FORTRAN.  I'd like to
identify the best software to implement this, while looking to the
future of possibly adding the ability for subscriber or general
posts (not necessarily there now, but doable in the future).
