Nope, no Ultra5s. They suck; I steer clear of them. I have nicer hardware
set aside for you.
This might explain those twelve unmentionables hanging around your
place. They are bookmarks.
Is that why they're flat??

Hello!
Oh okay. They are bookmarks because they are reminding you about what
you're planning on sending. However you did suggest (or imply) that
the selection would be related to the fellow I already own.
Now as to your friend, afraid I don't. I know a Susan Foreman, and a
Sarah Jane Smith, but not your Stacy Smith.

Stacy. She's awesome. It's sad that we've mostly lost touch, but our
friendship is one of those where we can not talk for a year, and then catch
up when I'm in town and it was like we were together the whole time.
If you need to find a home for any of those truckloads of hardware, I'm
sure you'll find some volunteers here.
I have some hardware that I'd very much like to send on to better homes. I
have some Sun Fire 6800s here. Glorious machines but surplus to my needs.
Want some?

Hello!
Mind the language! I don't know if this list is archived according to
the usual strange rules concerning e-mail lists, but if its a public
archive, that use of an appropriate four letter American word will
cause problems.
Oh good heavens.
This does not explain why there are six unidentified individuals
digging through a rubbish skip by your place, and seven others trying
to figure out why your place tastes bad.
That's someone else's rubbish skip, and that's my trash in it. ;)

By the way, MOP, from an ethernet point of view, is neither LAT nor DECnet. MOP is its own protocols on ethernet. 0x6001 and 0x6002. But I believe they were defined as being a part of the DECnet suite anyway.
The MOP spec is one of the DECnet architecture specs. And in fact it relies on the DNA datalink layer and is controlled via the DNA management layer. Other than that, it's indeed separate -- doesn't use routing or NSP.
Paul, what do you mean by "relies on the DNA datalink layer"?
MOP either uses DDCMP, which is a point to point DNA datalink layer, or Ethernet (including the DEC-originated explicit packet length field) which is a multicast DNA datalink layer. Or FDDI, I suppose, which is another DNA datalink layer.
In the latter two cases it may not be all that obvious, because people tend to think of Ethernet and FDDI as international standards. And so they are -- but DNA adds more detail. The packet length field in DNA Ethernet protocols (MOP and routing) is something in the DNA Ethernet spec but not in the international standard.
