Message-ID: List-Id: DISA will be releasing the draft RFP's for its massive AUTODIN upgrade, the Defense Message System, which will be a million+ user system for secure messaging within the DoD. DMS will be OSI compliant, using the X.400 and X.500 protocols for electronic mail and directory services. Among other things, DISA will be releasing much of the source code to industry, since it will have features not present in many commercial netwrorking systems, especially for security. Does anyone know what language will be specified for DMS (which will be a large system), given that most industry technology is all done in C/C++ (which affects both contractors for DMS, and industry users of DMS supplied source code)? -- ************************************************************************** Greg Aharonian Source Translation & Optimization P.O.
