Interesting idea. How much Unix expertise do you think is required? In
other words, do you think someone reasonably familiar with VMS and with a
smattering of (e.g.) cygwin or Darwin could do a useful job? Or will it
take someone fully conversant with both sides?

And where would you start? Could we get something useful by converting key
sections, or do we need to do a top-to-bottom job?

Your post was yesterday, and I have seen so far no other responses. I
wonder if this means that the need for a Unix-to-VMS-HOWTO is not generally
perceived, or because nobody thinks they have the necessary TUITs?
