There seems to be some confusion. When I looked into the UCBJADE case
and talked to the UCBJADE postmaster, I found out UCB was not
interested in sending a huge list of sites to NIC.

Therefore, the domain system knows about UCBJADE but the old host
table does not. It also seems that some people don't understand how
to deal with distributed name service...SRI-NIC domain server is NOT
going to know about UCBjADE.BERKELEY.EDU...It does however know about
BERKELEY.EDU and CMU.EDU and MIT.EDU and so on.

Given my understanding of the situation, I am glad a good number of
Berkeley hosts are not in the old host table. It motivates people to
get their domain resolvers up (like me) and the rest to do some
creative hacks like local additions to their host table which will
one day blow up in their face.

Effectively both MIT with their CHAOSNET problem and Berkeley with
many hosts not listed in the table are aiding in the developement of
the domain system. Now all that has to be done is get people of the
belief system of trying to use a domain name as a routing address
straigten out...[Some people around CMU thought, well the mail goes
to the EDU mail relay which goes to the CMU mail relay which goes to
the CS mail relay for addresses like ....CS.CMU.EDU...]
