	We want to be able to FTP from the internet. We need a number of
	RFC's for one of our projects
That's about the worst example one can give for needing full IP
connectivity: the most important RFC's are kept at most EUnet
backbones and can be picked up by uucp. I presume ukc has most
RFC's available too.

	ukc has a leased line to mcvax, which can now connect to the internet.
	So it should be possible for UK sites to connect over IP.
Having a leased line to mcvax does not necessarily imply running
IP over that line. In the case of ukc we don't run IP over the
line (yet).
