I posted an upgraded (unofficial) version of uupc for the mac-os that
works great (4 beta sites with no bugs other than clumsy interfaces).
The version (2.0) was posted to comp.binary.mac 5 weeks ago, as yet I've had
no confirmation of receipt from the moderator. It is going out to
INFO-MAC today. If anyone wants to host an ftp copy I'd be happy to
email a few. Rascal did offer ftp hosting but I can't get mail through to them
any more (are you out there Werner - please email me and I'll check
the new route).

The distribution is in 2 pieces, binary+running folder hierarchy
100k, sources 160k. The hierarchy is set up to run from floppy or hard disk.
It is modal (sorry) and so will not run in background, but if you
want to dedicate the mac to act as a slave host, it will do that too (i.e.
I've run uupc<->uupc sessions mac->mac at 57k baud (it may run faster).

The sources have been converted to THINK LSC v4.0.

There is no interface to uucp news (anyone wanna write/port one? - great
university cs project!!)

The email interface is functional but not nice. Mail aliases are implemented.
(another great university cs project!!)

The L.sys (called systems) file supports a timeout modifier so that
quick response "expects" can be coded for (good for gandalf initial
prompt aquisition).

If anyone is really desperate I can email a few.
