From: jradue@SANDCASTLE.COSC.BROCKU.CA (Jon Radue) Date: Tue, 26 Jul Name: Niagara Community InfoNet We are having some trouble with this name, as apparently Bell Canada have a trademark on the word InfoNet. Our next best effort is Niagara Community Free-Net (or NCF for short!!!) Basic contact info: jkerr@dewey.ed.brocku.ca (Jim Kerr) jradue@sandcastle.cosc.brocku.ca (Jon Radue) Status: We currently have a system running in an experimental test phase, but not yet open to the public. Deadline: We should be opening by the end of August, 1994. Software: We have a modified (to run tin, pico, Usenet, ...) and a secure (hopefully!) Gopher that we are testing. One advantage of this approach has been the ease with which information providers can both supply information and manage their own menus, using a product developed in-house at Brock. Bookmarks have also been found by users to be useful.
