Paolo:

 Call DECUS, (don't have their number off-hand), they have a PD uucp package
for VAX/VMS, on one of their VS0092/VS0093 Symposium Tapes. I believe these
two tapes are from the Tools and Languages SIG.  I am currently helping a 
friend do the same with his companies VAX, to connect to the UseNet. The
tape(s) should be about $150 (US) each.  

Good Luck.
