[comp.windows.x] MIT Athena Project - request for info

robert%zeus@swanee.ee.uwa.oz.au (Roberto Togneri) (09/10/90)

I have a query from a friend who now works in Hong Kong and
doesn't have access to the news:


>I would like to know everything I could about the nature, content
>and current progress of the MIT Athena Project.  I understand that
>this project is supported by MIT, DEC and IBM, and possibly others
>as well.  The X Window System is one of the significant aspects of
>this project.  But I would like to know more details of what is
>in fact being done now and, if possible, how.  What is the current
>status of the project?  What are the future plans?

If anybody has any information on this or information on where to
get the information I'd appreciate it.
I'll redirect any replies I receive. I might find this information
useful too.
