Conference 7.286::digital

    Answered via EMail...  With a pointer to the software that was the
    runaway hit of the DIGITAL booth at NEXPO '95/Atlanta GA (annual
    convention of the Newspaper Association of America).

    Dan,
    
    Can you also send me a pointer to the demo... We are also keen on few
    of the demos which we use in various roadshow.
    
    Regards
    jambu
    

    Done.
    

    Dan, please put pointer here, or send to me.  There are a number of
    people in Asia Pacific looking for hot demos.
    
    Thanks, Axel

    Will do... after this next Big Demo... :-)
    

    
    
    Where is the pointer now......
    
    
    

    Still pedaling as hard as I can... :-)  Hang on...  You'll get a bunch
    of pretty strong hints from my Home Page, but it's not Ready for Prime
    Time yet...  If I could stop myself from writing fake press releases
    :-) it'd be ready that much sooner...  
    

I just sent this out to the prospects we've collected over the past
few months.  I also attempted to send to the VAXmail addresses of
those in 4021.1-.6 who expressed interest.  If you're one of them and
you didn't get EMail from me, please send EMail to me with another
guess at an IP-style address I can use to get to you.

If you'd like me to add the names of any prospective customers to the
EMail list that I'll use in a day or so to actually send out the
invitations, then please DON'T say so here in DECnotes...  EMail me
and I'll be only too happy to oblige.  

I will ask you to simplify things by forwarding my #1 message to them
yourself.  You might want to defer this until I acknowledge receiving
your note requesting that their names/addresses be added.  Thanks!

Initial participants will be by invitation only.  This will include
both DIGITAL folk and outside customers...  Only so many hours in a
day...  and I'm going on vacation Friday at 5PM!

Subject: Workgroup Web Forum(tm) Kick-the-Tires demo, msg #1 of 2

Hello --

You're receiving this message, along with almost 200 other people.  
I'm using the Bcc: field so you won't be bothered by seeing their
addresses.  

YOUR email address is in our records either because you met me or my
colleagues at a recent convention (InterOp, Internet World, PC Expo,
NEXPO '95) or you are otherwise known to us as someone who might be
interested in learning more about a forthcoming multimedia groupware
product for the World-Wide Web:  "Workgroup Web Forum(tm)" from
Digital Equipment Corporation, Maynard MA USA.  
  
The product is now in Beta test, and will ship <=~October, 1995.

Webmasters can augment their web servers with Workgroup Web Forum(tm),
to enable them to host collaborative, asynchronous discussions on the
Internet, while the discussants use conventional, unmodified, generic
web browsers.

In just a few days, I'll be sending out a more informative -- less
mysterious, and more hospitable! -- message to your address.  It will
invite you to try Workgroup Web Forum(tm), using your own web browser. 
You won't have to download anything, and it's free.

If this address is incorrect and you nevertheless receive it via
forwarding, I'd appreciate a reply with a more current address, so
that the "real thing" gets to you quicker.

If there are others -- either in your organization or elsewhere -- who
you think might be interested in this product and to whom you'd like
me to send the forthcoming invitation, please reply with their EMail
addresses and a brief description of who they are, where they work,
and suchlike.

If for any reason you do NOT want to remain on this EMail list, you
have but to ask and I will promptly remove your name.

Thanks and regards,

Dan

    That goes double for any others who might be interested...  I'm tired
    of trying to figure out how to reach you via Internet-style addressing!
    
    That goes QUADRUPLE for folks shipping me mail from ALL-IN-1(TM)
    addresses...
    
    Tnx!
