OK, Here is a question that has been bothering me for a while. Since NBS is
involved in the specification of X.400 (as I gather from various sources),
is there any relationshsip at all between the X.400 and related CCITT
standards and the ARPA/RFC standards? Do the ARPA internet standards fall
within the framework of X.400? If not is anyone looking at gatewaying
problems between ARPA and ARPA-like nets to the hypothetical CCITT X.4??
net?

On the same note, it appears that CCITT is on the verge of adopting a set of
File Transfer Protocols too. How do those standards relate to ARPA FTP? Or
do they have any relation at all?
