RFC 389

RFC 389: UCLA Campus Computing Network Liaison Staff for ARPA Network 🎀

okay bestie, this is RFC 389, and it's a contact sheet 💅 It's from August 30, 1972, written by Barbara Noble over at UCLA/CCN, filed under NIC 11361. It's addressed to ARPA Network users. There aren't any categories listed. The obsoletes field is blank too (the original spells it OBSELETES, lol 🙈). It updates 10264 ✨
