[net.decus] Draft White Paper on Tape Allocation and Mounting Under VMS

ctp@pop.utexas.edu (Clyde T. Poole) (10/01/86)

About two weeks ago I posted an announcement on the availability of a DRAFT
White Paper on Tape Allocation and Mounting Under VMS.  The response was
gratifying.  Many people responded with requests and suggestions.

As part of the process of developing a DECUS White Paper and presenting it
to DEC as an official position or request of the Commercial Working Group of
the VAX SIG, it is necessary to tell DEC how many and what type of sites
participated in its development and/or agreed with its contents.  I can
not determine how many people acquired copies of the paper via ftp nor can
I tell if you disagree or agree with its contents.

If you have made comments or simply agree with the contents
of the paper, please let me know: 1) The type of site you represent
(Educational, Commercial, etc), 2) The number and types of machines you 
have, 3) The number and types of tape drives you have, 4) A general statement
of whether you agree, disagree, whatever with the paper.
