Since July 1, we have been operating with two sets of machine names: our
old "mhb5?" names, and our new Homeric names (ulysses, penelope, etc.).
As of October 1, use of the old names should be discontinued.  The master
files distributed by Network Action Central within the Labs will no longer
list the old names; our uucico programs will echo the new name on the
'Shere=' line, which will upset any 5.0 or later uucp that tries to address
us by the old names.
