Is there a way to put a Fidonet node in some UUCP-type map somewhere to 
give it a rememberable name.  joe@f42.l938.z0.fidonet.org (or whatever)
is awful hard to remember.  Is there a way to define, oh, say
fubar.fidonet.org to be == to the numbered address?

Please reply via e-mail, I'll summarize if there's interest.

Thank you.

Adam
