The "networking" facilities of the version of the notesfile system we
are running essentially consist in sending/receiving  notes to/from
other hosts in a batch mode.  This does not only mean duplication of data,
but also difficulties for managing the notesfiles in that there are no
facilities for propagating the deletion of notes, etc.

Is there an enhancement of the system allowing one to only have *one*
copy of the notesfiles in a LAN of *heterogeneous* machines talking
tcp-ip?  (I am thinking about something in the spirit of NNTP).
