This tape 
.ENDIF COVERLETTER
contains Version 1.2 of DECUS uucp 
(formerly "VMSnet software"), 
a package which allows VMS systems to exchange mail and network news with other 
systems (including Unix systems, and VMS systems running this software) 
using the uucp "g" protocol.  
It is being distributed via the Spring '90 U.S. DECUS VAX SIG Symposium Tape,
via the DECUS Program Library, and via direct mail.  
This version completely replaces Versions#0.2 and#1.1,
found on previous VAX SIG tapes.  
Geoff Huston's ANU News, Version 5.9C, with several minor additions
(for uucp integration), is included.  

Everything here has been compiled and linked under VMS#V5.2.  
(Version#1.1, which was present on the Spring#'89 VAX SIG tape (Atlanta),
runs under both VMS#V4.7 and#V5.)

Full documentation is in [.UUCP.DOC]USRGD12.MEM, and in other files
described therein.  

.IF SIGTAPE
Restoring these files 
.ENDIF SIGTAPE
.IF COVERLETTER
The tape contains a single saveset, UUCP12.BKP.  
Restoring it 
.ENDIF COVERLETTER
to disk will create a single directory tree, [UUCP...].  
The total space required for these files is about 40,000 blocks.  
23,000 blocks of this are a compressed BACKUP saveset, [UUCP]DEVEL.BKP-Z,
which contains source files, object files, and development tools;
if you have no plans to work on the software, you don't need to restore 
this to disk.  
Use a qualifier such as /EXCLUDE=DEVEL.BKP-Z 
on your backup command.  

If you do want the files from DEVEL.BKP-Z, use the tools "compress" 
and "modatt" in this package to restore it.  
Instructions are in the documentation.  
After decompression the saveset will take about 43,000 blocks; 
the files inside it total somewhat less than this due to BACKUP's overhead. 

.!The total space required for these files is about 37,000 blocks.  
.!If you have no plans to work on this software, 
.!you can save about 17,000 blocks by not restoring the source files, 
.!object files, and development tools.  
.!A BACKUP command such as the following (edited to reflect the actual
.!saveset and root directory name on the SIG tape, device names, etc.), 
.!should work.  
.!(This command obviously hasn't been tested, since this was written before
.!the tape was assembled; 
.!you may have to experiment a bit.)
