Several folks have mentioned the Web project that Questor is undertaking.
 
Basically, the intention is to create a Web site for those Questor clients who
can't or don't want to do it themselves. Questor will charge the client but
something substantially less than it might cost the client to set up their own
web site.
 
On it will be a copy of the museum's Argus collections data set up with search
access based on  how the client wants to structure it, using the Argus public
access module. Images can be included if available. The client will get data to
the site by sending a backup tape, and it will be updated as often as the backup
tape is sent.
 
Clients will also be able to post information and images about their museums.
 
Security and maintenance will be Questor's problem and they will be using a
dedicated computer for the project. It will be "firewalled" from Questor's other
machines and obvioulsy from the clients machines.
 
RE: provider's dial up access, this should be able to be controlled by the
system owner: dial up access after an authorizing phone call, a log of accesses,
etc.
