Glad you liked it (complete reference appended).  Best not to take specific
examples in the gateway chart for granted this much later, though:  lots of
things things have changed (don't try sending mail through WISCVM-- use
CUNYVM, aka CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU).  The PSUVAX1 route from BITNET to UUCP is
still good, as far as I know.

I am currently working on a book that will be an update and expansion of
the paper.  I'm collecting most of the remaining needed information this
month and next, for publication before the end of the year.  So, if anyone
has corrections to what was in the CACM article or anything further to add,
please let me know.
