Mark's remarks are somewhat opaque here. Does he mean to KEEP u.Top.1
if you have it (doubt, it, given the existence of the d.* files)?
How about the d.country, d.glue, d.top, which were replaced this month
with d.Country, d.Glue, and d.Top respectively? Did I miss the
announcement of this? What about d.att? It appears to be replaced by
AT&T entries in the individual regional files, but (for example) the
info for akgua does NOT appear in the domain file for Georgia. Should
it be removed?

More importantly, the file DONE distributed with the March maps is
totally bogus; it still lists the u.Path.1 files but makes no mention
of the d.* files.

Could we have a list of the files that constitute an up-to-date map
(and then be able to discard, without worrying, all others)?

Thanks in advance,
