      We've been testing the Bridge IP gateway; it's probably adequate now for
users who just want to interconnect multiple Ethernets equipped with 4.2BSD
machines, but is not yet general enough to handle interconnection with the
general ARPANET/Internet community.  But we've given them some advice, and
they are going back to put in more general routing, subnets, etc.  Stay tuned
for futher developments.  I expect we'll get a few of these boxes once they
get them upgraded to handle all the hard cases.
