ACAS Prestel Presence 1980a

Rob O'Donnell made this Freedom of Information request to Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service

Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service did not have the information requested.

From: Rob O'Donnell

2 February 2010

Dear Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service,

Back in the 1980s, you had an on-line presence on the BT “Prestel”
viewdata service, available under node 50015119 according to the
Prestel Directory October 1983.

I am requesting any surviving documentation and data relating to
this project, with emphasis on the pages as published on Prestel.
If these are available in their original digital form, perhaps for
instance in the form of a back-up tape or disc from the system that
was used to create them, or as a surviving tape as may have been
sent to BT for upload to the system, then this would be especially
welcome.

Should there be any issues relating to the cost or time taken to
fulfilling this request, then please consider my request to be
limited to digital form of the published pages.

Thank you for your attention.

Yours faithfully,

Rob O'Donnell
