[net.dcom] Ever heard of DeafNet?

lorien@dartvax.UUCP (Lorien Y. Pratt) (05/04/84)

Erik E. Fair at ucbvax!fair says that he heard a Uni-Ops talk by
Dave Fylstra, formerly of SRI, on something called DeafNet, which
was to be a USENET-like system for the deaf.  

My grandfather has a friend who is deaf that might really benefit
from being a member of such a network.  Erik Fair doesn't know
anything more about DeafNet.  Has anybody out there heard of it?

I'd appreciate any information you can give, even if it's only a 
lead.

I'll post a summary of all of the information I receive on 
telecommunication facilities for the deaf when all the votes are
in.
