List of UUCP Domain Parks This is a list of organizations offering UUCP 3rd level domain ("domain park") services. By grouping several smaller companies under a single 2nd level domain, only one forwarder for the entire park is necessary, resulting in considerable cost savings. The COM domain is shared among DDN, CSNET, UUCP, and BITNET, and each of these domains must keep the others aware of their 2nd level domain and how to reach each domain from each network. Often a small company does not need to appear as a 2nd level domain, and can benefit from the cost savings or any extra services offered by the park. The primary requirement for joining a park is that your domain is entirely within UUCP. If you are on another network, in addition to UUCP, or expect to be someday, then a park is not for you. (If you do sign up for a park and, at a later date, join another network, you can always change your domain name at that time.) ---------------------------- This is a placeholder for information about specific parks. The following people have indicated an interest in setting up a park, but only parks marked with *** are currently set up. Corporate parks.
