This is an update to the site description for west44.

Name: west44
Organisation: Dept. of Computer Science, Westfield College, London.
Mail: westf westcsr ukc ic-cs ucl-cs
News: westf westcsr ukc

ic-cs is the Dept. of Computer Science at Imperial College, London
(a site announcement from them will be forth coming).

The new ukc link means that mail aimed at west44 from the outside world
can now be addressed
	....!ukc!west44!username

and out from west44
	ukc!vax135!....

and out from westf
	west44!ukc!....

This  bypasses  the  old  root44  links.  Which   although   VERY
generously  paid  for  by  Root Computers (which is, after all, a
very nice thing to do) were modem connections both  west44-root44
and  root44-ukc  whereas  the new link transfer directly over the
London Gateway.

The root44 link will be still maintained.

We poll ukc for mail hourly and for everything else hourly between
1900 and 0800 hours.
