From a README on uunet.uu.net's anonymous FTP site:

----
We are experimenting with a new mechanism for the distribution of some
high-priority network bug fixes.  UUNET is a company that provides
connectivity to the Internet as well as through UUCP.  There is a
directory in ~ftp/sun-fixes on the machine uunet.UU.NET that currently
contains the following files:

-rw-r--r--  1 sunfixes vendor     484687 Dec 14  1988 ddn.tar.Z
 ...

And includes a large directory of patches.

Why not HP?
