I don't.  Even though I am piggybacking onto nshore's domain, I
believe there is still a valid use for the uucp maps.  For one
thing, uucp-only connected systems are the utmost in
independence, and I think it would be unwise to attempt to force everyone to
be corralled into domains and forced to deal with Internet sites
if they don't wish to do so.  uucp provides the opportunity to
keep it simple if a given site wants to do so.  And the maps
provide some assurance that a site will be reachable if it wants
to be.
