Does anyone know if there are plug-ins/whatever that would allow OS-X to
read the VMS documentation and layered products CDs ?

I assume those CDs are in ODS-2 format.

I realise that the MAC wouldn't be able to do much with those files, bu
it could serve then via NFS or FTP to those who still need access to them.

The ODS-2 reader that lurks on the internet has been used under
OS X. I've seen this recently, but I don't recall where.

Some of the documentation was available on CDs that Windows can read,
with a Windows application to read it. OS X won't be able to run
that application, but it should be able to read the CDs and the
documents tend to be in common formats now. Tracking the document
name to file name you'll probably have to do by inspecting the
library (.odl) files.
