Although I agree with the usefulness of having the maps for the various
interconnected networks available for pathalias to munch on, I disagree
that there should be a separate newsgroup for each one.  In fact, since
mod.map.uucp is the only subgroup of mod.map, I would suggest removing
mod.map.uucp and put \all/ of the mapping-related traffic in mod.map,
including the ARPAnet (BITNET, CSnet, DECnet, etc.) connectivity data,
which is all that's required (no site information is needed unless the
site is also connected via UUCP).  How's that, Spaf?  Another newsgroup
you can nuke!
