If they did, I would take my mail elsewhere. The fundamental principles that guide UUCP can guide us into the 21st century if we care to see it happen. Where do you get the idea that I am proposing anything remotely resembling CSNET? CSNET is not domained, nor was there any discussion of a central mail machine. No new sites need connect. No one need bother dis-connecting. Things go on like normal, only the namespace has been changed to reflect a distributed view of the world. ------------ Jordan Hayes jordan@UCB-VAX.BERKELEY.EDU UC Berkeley ucbvax!jordan +1 (415) 835-8767 37' 52.29" N 122' 15.41" W
