Does anyone know if MIPS has any plans to incorporate/supply/support
Hesiod in RISC/os (Hesiod is Project Athena's Name server, with
functionality that allows it to maintain distributed databases of
locally specified information [like the location of DNA sequence
searching servers].  Since it runs on top of BIND, and RISC/os
supports BIND it seems feasible.

I think that DEC is using Hesiod in Ultrix 4.0, but haven't seen it
yet.
