   If your refering to the UUCP project, I would guess Mark
Horton would need to answer this one.  I am orginizing and
requesting a new domain:
     fido.net
   This domain will consist of Fido Standards Committee (FSC)
compatible machines.  For the most part, these are PCs running
MS-DOS, but the FSC protocal is being ported to machines running
CP/M-80, CP/M-68 and on Macintosh(s?).  
   There is one other requirement, at this time.  Machines
wishing to be registered under this domain need to be registered
in the International FidoNet Association (IFNA), or "St. Louis"
nodelist.  There is no fee for registering with IFNA for the
nodelist.
