Yah, I axed UUCP, though there were a few things that still had
to be kept, like 'rmail'. I might also have to bring back 'cu' but
I'd rather somebody just enhance 'tip' with cu-like abilities instead
(e.g. -l line option, clocal operation for immunity from hangups, etc).
Getting rid of uucp was a relief. Nobody in the right mind uses uucp
any more, or if they do it really ought to be a port instead of base
(and this is from the guy who wrote AmigaUUCP so I have some authority
on the matter!).
