Well, thanks to a certain Mr Graham Burley, and the Notes API, there is
now a web interface to Notes - HTNotes. This is available on the
Deathrow Cluster at http://gein.vistech.net/notes/ (if you have an
account), and works with VMS authentication and authorization quite
nicely. Yes, if you know the right magic incantations you can log into
our system's HTNotes interface and work with conferences on multiple
systems. For obvious (trolling) reasons I won't post the specifics of
that here.
>From my lurking on Eisner, I suspect it will end up in use there too,
plus it has the advantage that those who prefer the character cell
interface can work with that, and those who want to work in a browser can
do so.
Anyways, as Graham has demonstrated, the design of Notes allows for
expansion in ways never even dreamt of by the original implementors.
Doc.
