I have quickly sent out an updated 9202B file (BITNET GATES and DOMAIN
NAMES).  Hopefully many of you were slow to work on these files on Thursday
and Friday last week.  In the future, the various coordinators of the
NODES file will update me in time about nodes that have dropped from the
routing tables so that I can remove them from my tables.  But allow me
to express my anger at nodes such as these (this is not the first time and
probably not the last), that just drop off the network, caring very little
about their users and the network as a whole.  The only real people hurt
by not updating DOMAIN NAMES are the people in HAVERFORD and BRYNMAWR -
their mail just disappears.  Sites such as these knew enough to register
themselves in my tables, they should attempt to remember to remove themselves
also.

Perhaps BITNIC should create a document called - "What you need to do to
leave Bitnet"?  Tell them about global listserv deletes, domain names,
bitnet gates, etc.

I don't need this on a Sunday morning.  Sorry if I sound irate and flamed
a bit too much here.

Hank
