[ih] Prehistory: NPL Scrapbook

[Brian E Carpenter]

Hi,

Back on topic, I hope. I've been contacted in the last few days by Peter Cashin, who is the only surviving developer of the Scrapbook project at NPL in 1970-74. This is not well known but was a (small) distributed information service including things very like hyperlinks, running over the pioneering NPL packet-switched network. Vint may remember Peter from INWG meetings.

Peter is a New Zealander who now divides his time between NZ and Canada. Should I be doing an oral history style interview with him? He's in NZ for the next few weeks.

Regards
