Is there going to be a similar demonstration of RFS among different vendors? It seems to me that this is a very critical time for 5.3 RFS to demonstrate that it is a viable alternative to 4.2/3 SUN networking. There is enough momentum behind NFS that unless AT&T acts quickly, NFS will "win" by default and become the distributed unix standard.
