Interest in UUCP?

Bill,

See my announcements on the list. I was already in the process of doing
this. I was going to put up a NIC to let people reserve host names and a
map database and start publishing the global maps to comp.mail.maps
again.

Of course, if someone really wants to do it, there's nothing I can do to
stop them nor would I in all likelihood. But I just didn't think it was a good
idea to duplicate efforts.

BTW, they killed the mapping project last year in August or September.
