Conference krakar::f1

    Quick question that goes along with the fast coming cut-off of VAXes. 
    We, here in Acton, Mass. anyway, are moving quickly to Microsoft
    Exchange mail.  When that happens within the next couple of months, the
    cluster on which I connect to this (and other) notesfiles will go away.
    
    My question is whether or not notesfiles are now up on Digital's home
    page on the web, and can be accessed (and printed hard copy when
    necessary)?  If they are not up on the web yet, will they be, or will
    we lose access to this forum?  If they are on the web, how do you
    connect to them?

I have been using NetNotes for about a month now.  I downloaded it off 
a server mentioned in the Exchange area (I think).  It is very adequate 
for reading and writing notes for the casual user.  See if someone in 
your area is using this product.  There are a couple of tricks that 
need some attention when setting up, but it works pretty well.

You can also use the Web-Notes gateway. Can't remember where it is but you 
should be able to find it using the Intranet AltaVista search engine. 
Search for "+notes" and "+gateway".

    Try "http://www-notes.lkg.dec.com/krakar/f1/" for the F1 conference.
    for other conferences replace 'kraker' & 'f1' with the appropriate node
    and filename....
    
    happy noting,

	http://www-esn.lkg.dec.com/decnotes/  is the Easynet Conferences
	home page, and lists all notes conferences accessible via a
	web browser (simliar to easynotes.lis).

    Thank you all SO MUCH.  I'd really hate to lose the type of information
    obtainable here.
    
    Thanks again,

There is a `problem' (maybe a feature!) with Web-notes...

It does not know about replies to old topics... It seems to assume that 
all new data is in the last few topics.

example: the SF conference on NOTED::... 
The most recent new topic is 20th June 1996. This is the latest that 
Web-notes sees. There have been 24 replies in 12 topics since then that 
I find hard to impossible to find with Web-notes, but are readily located 
with both the classic notes interface and the windows interface.

I have mailed Matt Thomas, in the hope that he knows who wrote Web-notes,
but any `fix' for this is a long way off...

The NetNotes product (and installation instructions) can be found at:

	http://www-ccs.wro.dec.com/NT/Kits/

The Web browser for casual users is at

	http://www-esn.lkg.dec.com/decnotes/

The above from a document called ALL-INTO-EXCHANGE dated October 3, 1996.

    Thanks again for all the inputs.  Found everything I needed on the 
    DEC homepage, however, when I go to click on reading a specific a note,
    it just disappers.  Where does it go?  Why does it do that?  Can it
    really be read?
    
    Boy, do I feel stupid,

    >> when I go to click on reading a specific a note, it just disappers. 
    >> Where does it go?
    
    You need to scroll down the screen to read it at the bottom of the
    page.

What software are you using to read notes?
