Subject: Topic for a possible future BOF

Several follks expressed an interest in how APPN can best be implemented
on a fault-tolerant platform, for example a multiprocessor system with a
real-time operating system, or in a system with hot-pluggable adapters.
If there is a lot of interest in this topic, I would be willing to host
a BOF to discuss techniques amd possible architecture ramifications.
 
Anybody interested?

Marcia,
 
Our APPN EN implementation is on Tandem computers, which as you may know, are
fault-tollerant, multiprocessor systems. The OS is not real-time, but we'd
certainly be interested in participating in this BOF.
