Subject:Embedded Indexing Software: Informal User Survey From:"Nancy C. Mulvany" <nmulvany -at- WELL -dot- SF -dot- CA -dot- US> Date:Fri, 14 Jan 1994 11:07:39 -0800
The following is a re-posting of an earlier message that
apparently became garbled during transmission.
Re: Request for Comments on Embedded Indexing Software
I want to thank all of you who replied to my Request for Comments
about embedded indexing software in December. You've been very
generous by providing thoughtful responses.
As promised, I will post the results of this informal survey. I
hope to have preliminary results posted by early to mid-February.
My file containing your responses is around 180 Kb in size. So, I
have a bit of material to go through! I do hope to present
"common threads" in your requests for improvements in this type
of software.
I have yet to thoroughly read everything (which I plan to do). I
have skimmed through the responses. As expected, the responses
clearly indicate that we are not "happy campers."
As a few of you have made clear, you consider your correspondence
with me as private email. Since I did not specify otherwise, I
too consider it private email and understand that many of you do
not wish attribution for your comments.
Again, thank you very much for sharing your thoughts with me.
