	The new top level domains have already been decided.  UUCP isn't 
	currently one of them.  As I remember, the top level domains are 
	EDU, GOV, MIL, and I think COMercial 

Wait a minute...I thought that each domain had to be a seperate administrative
entity with its own name server and other miscellaneous network support.

Certainly ARPA and probably CSNET and maybe even UUCP could have their own
domain, but I don't understand the rationale for splitting the internet into
Educational, Goverment, Military and Commercial domains.

Can some one enlighten me?

Thanks.
