As you might guess people are starting to ask how the new AS/400 et al
might connect to BITNET.  I'll happily take any clues or plain rumors.
I searched INFONETS LOG88* here and found one entry on July 3 referring
to the AS/400 and the 5250 API use to connect PCs.

There are none in "full node" status on BITNET, EARN or NetNorth -- but
that certainly doesn't mean there's none which don't have some sort of
access.  In Finland there's an AS/3000 and AS/8043 on EARN, whatever
they are.
