It's an OK domain in Europe:
urania ~ % dig mx @mcsun.eu.net hq.demos.su
;; ANSWERS:
hq.demos.su. 86400 IN MX 100 mcsun.eu.net.
hq.demos.su. 86400 IN MX 200 uunet.uu.net.
and it looks like there's international root servers for the .su
domain:
urania ~ % dig ns @mcsun.eu.net su.
;; ANSWERS:
su. 86400 IN NS mcsun.eu.net.
su. 86400 IN NS sunic.sunet.se.
su. 86400 IN NS uunet.uu.net.
su. 86400 IN NS brouilly.inria.fr.
su. 86400 IN NS munnari.oz.au.
su. 86400 IN SOA mcsun.eu.net. hostmaster.mcsun.eu.net.
So I'd attribute the problems to slowness in getting this information
into the USA root servers, including ns.nasa.gov, ns.nic.ddn.mil.
As I understand it some USA networks have explicit provisions that
they not be connected to "Eastern bloc" networks; I don't know if
international concerns like that are the reason here or whether it's
simply a matter of time before the update makes it in.

For those people who don't receive alt.folklore.computers: What DEMOS is: We are a co-operative - that is a group-private enterprise - formed by a bunch of programmers who were involved in the development of UNIX-compatibles for a variety of Soviet-made (Western-compatible, partially compatible, non-compatible and that doesn't look very computerish for westerners) computers. The name DEMOS was a generic name for these OSes. It is 1) A Russian abbreviation for the 'Interactive Unified Portable Operating System' 2) (ancient Greek) People, citizens. -- -- Dmitry V.

I don't think its a question of won't participate. I think everyone agrees that it would be a nice idea to have an ip network in the UK. If you really are sadistic + you want to know all about the subject of IP in the uk, feel free to read eunet.general, eunet.followup + comp.protocols.tcp-ip.

Maybe we will see well connected Soviet sites before English ? Any particular reason why the U.K. is not in the Internet yet? Their national networking infrastructure was built before it was clear to them that the TCP/IP suite would become as pervasive as it has. They use their own "Coloured Book" protocol suite, with application gateways for (e.g.) mail and news. This was recently discussed, quite heatedly, in comp.protocols.tcp-ip. I doubt that more flames here would help anyone at all.
