[comp.unix.questions] NEEDED: BBS

funk@osiris.cso.uiuc.edu (01/05/90)

We have been tasked to provide a "bulletin board capability", primarily
to disseminate information to a number of separated sites.  The solution
chosen was to use  notes, which provides everything we need.   Management,
however, has decided that they want us to "compare notes against two or
three commercial 'generic' bulletin boards".  They really haven't articulated
what more it is that they want, but mine is not to reason why.

It would be preferable (IMO) if it is UNIX based (to run on the 
existing platforms (Unisys 5000/80 SYSVR2/R3)  ) but I'll consider/compare
anything.

Soooo, if anyone would care to mail names/comments/sources of their favorite
bbs, I would be greatly appreciative.

Vendor replies welcome. 

Please reply by mail to the zweibrucken address.

Many thanx.
