- |Hmmm. Perhaps I phrased that rather badly - I just got mail from
- |one of the uknet guys who took it as a criticism. I just want to point
- |out publicly that they've done an excellent job keeping the uucp
- |service going ever since we signed up with them, and have been
- |polite and helpful when on the receiving end of several crotchety
- |phonecalls from yours truly. I really have the utmost respect for
- |the guys there who do the work - if I was critical at all it was
- |only aimed at the hardware they're stuck with, not their management
- |of it.
- |
- |And it seems my mail to them about the problems with the uucp
- |data rate got lost somewhere. I should have guessed that - they
- |answer everything else pretty quickly. Apologies for suggesting
- |you might have been ignoring it. I'll look out the figures and
- |mail them again.
-
-
- I would also like to publicly praise the good folks at uknet.
- I worked under contract at X/Open in Reading for a year and the
- chaps at uknet were an excellent source of information and help.
- They quickly responded to my e-mail queries and were most
- pleasant and helpful with my telephone calls, too. And I made
- quite a few of both! So, THANKS, GUYS!
-
- Regards,
- Robert.
