I have a questin about DecNet...I hope Iam posting to the correct news group.

Our university is connected to several networks and I just figured out that
one network is DEC-NET. I am seeking any information anyone might have about
this network -- basically an overview will do with a directory of nodes
included (if at all possible.)  Some example questions would be:

Is decnet just for vax/vms or are other computers connected?
Is it a nationwide, world wide, etc?
Are there gateways to other networks?
Is decnet new/old and does it have any historical significances?

From my example questions, you can see, I do not know much about it. Any other
information that you may have will be also welcome.  

Thanks!
