A few months ago there was some discussion on how to classify PCs under the domain naming system. Was this ever resolved? I can't see spending $150/year out of my own pocket just to conform and maybe be easier to mail to... Thanx --- \scott -- Scott Hazen Mueller City of Turlock 901 S.

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. -- Tim Pozar UUCP pozar@hoptoad.UUCP Fido 1:125/406 USNail KLOK-FM 77 Maiden Lane San Francisco CA 94108 PaBell (415) 788-3904

I'm partially referring to the UUCP Project; also, though I recall that
some people were discussing registering a top-level domain under .ORG and
then turning around and registering subdomains to individuals and others
not willing to cough up the whole cost.
I suppose that I had better clarify my use of "PC" - I have an AT&T Unix-PC,
and I'm already connected via UUCP.
