The basic problem is that ARPA (the US gov't) hasnt declared any "official" domains other than ARPA. An official domain implys the existence of a well-maintained nameserver service, and this does not exist for uucp, or bitnet for all I know. Thus on the arpanet, ARPA must be top level, and subdomains must be in the "local part". Kind of a silly situation, but the good side is that it encourges the formation of the nameservers. Apparently things are coming along on the uucp and csnet fronts. AK
