  The Japan BITNET Association has established BITNETJP as a Cooperating
Network to include the existing (and future) BITNET sites in Japan,
and also (by agreement) the Korean and Taiwanese sites.
  The name for the new Cooperating Network is to be BITNETJP.
  The proposed Acceptable Use Policy for this new Cooperating
Network will be available as the file BITNETJP NET_USE from
LISTSERV@BITNIC, within the next few days.
  This network will become effective as of the April distribution
of the routing tables.  Its existence will cause no change in the
names of nodes in Japan, Korea, or Taiwan and will be invisible to
users of the network.  It is purely an administrative action.
