The main task of an ADMD is to be an agent, whose names can be put into electronic mail addresses, and who can be easily reached from all over the world, thus making it easier to write mail to recipients who have en ADMD name in their e-mail address. Thus, the academic nets should only become ADMD-s if they are able and willing to make themselves easily reachable by e-mail senders all over the world. If they are not able and willing to do this, they should instead register as a PRMD under another ADMD which is better able and willing to be reachable from everywhere.

In Norway we have been forced to become an ADMD (ADMD=UNINETT) for the simple
reason that we have been unable to get the other communicating parties in
Norway to "see the light" :-) and support the ADMD=" " convention, and that
we refuse to be locked in to a single ADMD provider.
There is still no clear meaning attached to "being an ADMD" in Norway.
