Hier die Antwort der EUnet Deutschland GmbH:


Folks,

     The German EUnet has the responosibility for the UUCP maps
     u.deu.? - there is no other institution to ask for a non-private map
     entry.

Yes, we have the responsibility for the UUCP maps u.deu.?. No, there are
other institutions to ask for a non-private map entry.

     Our sites "fub", "fubinf" and "fubmat" where registered in the
     u.deu.3 with a link to "unido" (the UUCP name of the German EUnet).
     
     Now, in the u.deu.3 released 22 Jan 93 16:27:48 GMT all three entries are
     deleted - without *any* notification sent to the postmasters of these
     sites.

A termination notice for your contract was sent to the invoice address of
your institution by postal mail on the 25th of September last year. As
requested a copy of this notice was sent to Heiko Schlichting by postal mail
on the 23rd of December 1992. I do not see the reason why you should act
surprised when we deleted the link at the start of this year. You had
more than three months time to set up an alternative uucp link. We never
even received a request from you to keep your uucp map entry in our maps.

     I think it is a serious abuse of authority to delete map entries without
     notification and this behavior shows that the maintainer of the u.deu.?
     is not able to seperate his (commercial) EUnet job from his (voluntary) 
     tasks as a map maintainer who should work in the interest of the UUCP
     community.

My understanding of the agreement EUnet has with the UUCP Map Project is
that we are responsible for the u.deu.? and the u.deu.?? maps. Only customers
of EUnet Germany will be entered into these maps. We do carry the u.deu.???
maps which are administered by:

  [ excerpt from u.deu.100 ]
  # from:        maps@fu-berlin.de
  # changes to:  maps@fu-berlin.de (maps@fub.uucp)
  [ ... ]

You might want to get into contact with the above people and ask them
if they would be prepared to enter your node into their maps.

If you need more information please don't hesitate to contact us by
telephone or e-mail.

	Best regards,

		Marc Sheldon
