That also isn't true.  You can make Taylor behave exactly
like traditional uucp if that's what you want.  So you can
indeed keep the existing structure intact.  Taylor is quite
configurable.  I chose to punt all the standard uucp tools
and use the Taylor binaries and config files.  For me, the
Talor config files less cryptic to read/edit.  I also chose
to move things to more manageable locations.

If anyone wants/needs my configuration files, just let
me know.

Cheers,

Chris
