Thanks for sharing.

In response to Julf's point --- wasn't it all academic to start with?
In the early days, academia was leading in a few countries and 
EARN/NETNORTH/BITNET interfacing with local networks like JANET (where I 
"lived").
The only alternative at the time was UUCP. (we're talking 1985-88)
Kindest regards,

Olivier
