I inquired of a Network Solutions salesperson after one of their
presentations at the conference in Monterey this past March, and
he said that their DDN/MVS did not support 3270-mode telnet.

Regarding an RFC: I suppose I could document what I've found while
doing FTP's implementation, but I'm not a mainframe programmer, and
I got the feeling during an earlier discussion here that the present
state of affairs wasn't to everyone's satisfaction.  Should I (or
some one of the others working on TN3270) institutionalize what
we've got now?  If not, I'd be happy to be included in any e-mail
discussion of what *ought* to be done.  I definitely agree that the
issue needs some work, since the number of available implementations
has been growing.

PS: I sent a request to be added to this list to "tcp-ip-request@sri-nic.arpa"
three weeks ago, and it appears I haven't been added.  Was that the wrong
place to send it?
