I sent out a note to a bunch of sites during the middle of the summer
requesting that their map data, which  dated back to 1984, be brought
up-to-date. A handful of people replied.

Again, on October 16th, I sent out a slightly nastier note to the sites
that hadn't replied during the summer to send in an update for their
out-of-date map data. Again, a handful replied. In the letter of 16 Oct.,
I also stated that any site which had not replied by the middle of
November risked being removed from the map, because I would have to
assume that they were dead.

Well, it's now the middle of November, and the following is the list of
sites to be removed. I'm not going to do any removing until the middle
of December, so as to try and give the sites who are still around ONE
LAST CHANCE at getting things up-to-date. If no update is received,
these sites will no longer exist. When this happens, I'll be sure
to make a posting to new.news.sa and new.news.config, so that the
SA's out there will know to remove all links to the sites that are
removed.

If you read this message and know that one of the sites listed below
still exists, please forward this message on to the SA of that site,
or to someone you know there, and request that s/he forward it onto
the SA.

By the way, I'll be doing the same type of thing during the beginning 
of the year with sites whose last update dates back to 1985. Once the
new year rolls around, any map data dated 1985 will be more than
a year old, and that's just too long! So if your latest data was
send to cbosgd!uucpmap in 1985, now would be a good time to
update things.

Finally, if you are the SA on one of the sites listed below, and aren't
exactly sure HOW to submit a new map to the UUCP Project, please send
e-mail to me, and I'll get the necessary electronic form sent to you.
That way, I'll know for sure you do exist, and will know not to remove
you from the maps.
