Hello!

NSTN is planning to offer UUCP accounts.  UUCP will be probably be provided
by a SparcStation running SunOS, and a single directly-connected Telebit
Trailblazer.  Our planned rates are 75$/month subscription, plus .25$/minute.  
Downstreaming of sites won't be allowed, but sites will have a FQDN for a 
site name, which I imagine should be both convenient and upwardly-mobile.

We've been designing the service for the last month or so, but as well as
being reminded of it yesterday :-), we made some final decisions about the
price and the service details.

What do the other regionals have planned for UUCP?
