It was still very current news when I arrived at Staffordshire in 1996
and several people there were authors and had a big sense of
disappointment about its demise. I understood that it was done on a
shoestring budget and kinda fizzled out. It is still fondly remembered.

I think that the initiative was Martin Woolley's, was it not?

Ah yes Zeke. I remember him well
(see: drs archive 6 April 2000 http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/drs.html; and
phd-design archive 2003). And now I am filled with both nostalgia and
confusion (of time).
