Hi Everyone,
I only took over John's pages that involved DCS. I did not take on any of
his work with CWIS. You should check with them for that information. Some
information that I simply found using moira is that webtest.mit.edu is an
alias for SUNTZU.MIT.EDU located in E40-347 which hasn't had its
information changed since 1993 and usage data indicates jul 1998. I doubt
the machine still exists since it is marked as a Sparc Classic. This
hasn't been working for a while I imagine. There is no contact information
listed. As for anything further, I am not a web developer do not see how I
could be of any assistance.
Good Luck,
Jonathan
