Texas CS Dept., Austin, Texas Lines: 16 It's just been my inestimable pleasure to join the ranks of the many people on USENET who have been told what they meant to say by Peter da Silva. Doubtless his version is more correct than what I actually did write: it is certainly different. Because pathalias does not run on small PDP-11s does not mean a) that it could not be made to (compress does, and I'm sure Dr. honeyman is at least as capable as the authors of that program) or b) that domain routers could not (especially considering they wouldn't have to be nearly as complex). I wonder how it is that the huge UUCP map that current UUCP source routing requires is not centralized but domains would have to be centralized.... -- John Quarterman, UUCP: {ihnp4,seismo,harvard,gatech}!ut-sally!jsq ARPA Internet and CSNET: jsq@sally.UTEXAS.EDU, formerly jsq@ut-sally.ARPA
