Announcing release 2.2 of
  LINCKS - a multi-user object-centred database system

  LINCKS is an object-centred multi-user database system
  developed for complex information system applications where
  editing and browsing of information in the database is of
  paramount importance.  The focus is on sharing of small
  information chunks which combine to make up complex information
  objects used by different users for different purposes. The
  information chunks are semi-structured in that they contain one
  part which is well-structured to facilitate addition of A.I.
  processing within the system, and one part which is
  unstructured and suitable for management by the user.

  This directory is mirrored to

	ftp.uu.net:pub/database/lincks
	gatekeeper.dec.com:/pub/net/infosys/lincks
	sunsite.unc.edu:pub/packages/database/lincks

  for users in the U.S.  This site is in Sweden.

			Written by David Partain.  This is compressed
			using gzip, which is GNU's compression
			utility.  I suggest you get it if you don't
			have it.
