Here are the statistics for the use of CMS View and VM Gopher services in
May.  CMS View is available only to CMS users - either using their own
userid or by logging on to one of the anonymous View userids.  VM Gopher
is available to CMS users and anyone with a workstation with campus
ethernet access and Gopher client software. (We have client software for
Macintosh, DOS, and Unix systems.) Our Gopher server is also available
world-wide through the Internet and provides a convenient path to other
servers by campus users.
 
The transaction counts are counts of menu picks - when someone picks an
item from a View or Gopher menu that is one transaction.  A transaction
could lead to a document, a search, or another menu.
 
The numbers for May are affected by the end of the semester, but the trend
from March continues - View use slightly down, Gopher use slightly up.
 
Gopher:                                 View:
19,434 total transactions               58,123 total transactions
 5,261 from CMS users (ukcc.uky.edu)     1,090 from anonymous View logons
 1,519 UK campus network workstations
12,654 from off-campus
 
 
The Gopher hit parade - last month's position is in brackets.  View
follows the same pattern.
