We USED TO have the Compion package. We gave it up and got the
Wollongong version. What a change! We are extremely pleased with
what we have now - it is much better. It is faster and doesn't
have many of the unpleasant restrictions that the COmpion package had.
With the Compion version, if you were ftp'ing files FROM a VMS to another
machine, you could only do 1 at a time. THen you would have to
close the ftp connection and re-open it to do another file. Accessing
a system over the network gave burst-y response.

I have no information about any of the other packages mentioned.
