I would like people to send me info on both DataClub and GraceLAN (via
e-mail).  Here are the questions I'd like answered:

For DataClub:
Are there any known incompatibilities with it that are not incompatibilities
with AppleShare?
How fast is it, compared to TOPS?
Do you get that same old slowdown if someone is accessing your machine?
Is it compatible with System 7?
If it IS compatible with System 7, would it effectively work with publish
and subscribe across machines?
And, if it would, doesn't that make it much better than System 7's file
sharing setup with only 10 users available?

For GraceLAN:
What kinds of neato things does it do for a network manager?
How does it compare to Farallon's NetCheck and TrafficWatch?
Does it work on both LocalTalk and Ethernet?
Are there any compatibility problems that you know about?

Thanks in advance for any answers!
