questions on network gateways

BIX has is investigating an official gateway, I believe with the folks at
UUNET.  CompuServe has a project going on, also, the work is being done by
Karl Kleinpaste of Ohio-State.  Based on postingsd seen elsewhere, I
wouldn't be surprised if MCIMail also had something in the works.

A large number of newsgroups are gatewayed between mailing lists, but
UCBVAX has gateways INTO all of them, pretty much.  To post to
foo.bar.baz, send mail to foo-bar-baz at ucbvax.berkeley.edu
