- Why You Should Register Why You Should Register Why You Should Register UUPC/extended UUPC/extended UUPC/extended
-
- Kendra Electronic Wonderworks now offers the opportunity for you
- to register your copy of UUPC/extended. Here's why:
-
- As a reasonable guess, around 1200 hours of work have gone
- into it here the Wonderworks. This is a non-trivial amount.
-
- Most of the e-mail received outside the KEW.COM domain is
- now related to UUPC/extended. This, combined with the major
- intra-domain e-mail requirements1 for KEW.COM soon going
- away, UUPC/extended threatens to become its own perpetual
- motion machine: we maintain UUPC/extended to stay in touch
- with the outside world, and the outside world sends us mail
- about maintaining UUPC/extended.
-
- It is an accepted fact that the original UUPC was not
- written by Kendra Electronic Wonderworks, and that others
- have written numerous additional features include UUCP, UUX,
- and pending features include support for the "f" protocol
- and news. What is not as clear is the work done here which
- goes into integrating, and polishing these features; because
- of work done here, people can take the work done all over
- world and use it by unpacking a few files.
-
- Ryder rents trucks, Avis tries harder, MIT hacks the
- Yale/Harvard game, and Kendra Electronic Wonderworks hunts
- bugs. Lots of bugs; bugs from the dawn of UUPC, bugs from
- other people's code, and even bugs we introduced (Ooops).
- A second system is maintained here for the sole purpose of
- providing downloading services to others via Kermit and
- anonymous and for hunting bugs. Only RAID kills more bugs.
- We also integrate bug fixes from other people, so those few
- files we give to others to unpack not only have more
- features but also bug fixes.
-
- Bug hunting can be a bitch, and writing documentation is
- worse. Kendra Electronic Wonderworks has done both gratis
- for two years. Beginning with release 1.11m, the
-
-
- 1The owner of kendra.kew.com is going to marry the owner of
- athena.kew.com. Thus, the transcontinental UUPC/extended link
- currently used by the happy couple is not long for this world.
- Send congratulations to binkley@athena.kew.com.

-
- documentation has been expanded, and will be further
- enhanced to make the package easier to use. This does not
- benefit the internal users; we know how it works, and don't
- need the documents.
-
- Because if you register, we can buy more chocolate for
- Snuffles.
-
- The short version of the above is you have the package; what you
- can optionally pay for is additional enhancements and support by
- the creatures most knowledgeable about UUPC/extended.
