    I am a member of a distributed operating systems research group based at
Lancaster University, U.K.  Since October 1983, the group has been designing
a distributed operating system called COSMOS.
    COSMOS exhibits a high degree of logical coupling and is designed to 
operate in a lan (local area network) based environment.
    Would any other research workers/teams in the same field be interested
in setting up a new group (e.g. net.research.opsys) through which we would
be able to cooperate with each other by the mutual sharing of research 
experience etc? If so, we would be happy to hear from you.
