There are still a couple of questions to be answered. What are we going to call the private namespace? Is a ident going to be used? Do AARNet differentiate between email and news usage? Did the discussion shift into email? I posted a reply to the request asking for the small site perspective but have not heard a reply or comment on anything since. Did get my post get out and/or did the discussion die in mid flight? I'm confused. Mark ---- Mark Purcell, 62/25 Market Street, SYDNEY NSW 2000.
