I understand that it is just a matter of priority.  There are
only so many programmers to go around anywhere, and they would
rather put them to work on Apps to go into /NextApps, rather
than standard Unix fares.

They must figure that, with enough Unix wizards roaming around
the universe, problems with uucp will be worked out without
NeXT getting involved directly.
I think this applies to most of the standard but obscure BSD
commands.
