When your packets are delivered by ftp or even email, what's the point? I recall a net in z2 for internet use that was more flexable about things like that, but nothing of the sort exists for z1 and the best I can hope for is a point. I would not want to be a point, though at the moment considering if I had a node I would be just me, it probably doesn't matter.. Still, if I'm gonna be on the list I'd rather be connected as a node.

I have Marco's ifmail/ifcico packages up and running nicely. FTN over Internet is pretty cool.. There's a lot you can do with just procmail, uudecode or mime, and of course a tosser and your favorite usenet or mail reader.. (I'd prefer email reader for Fido because the echos fit mailing list better than newsgroup IMO) At any rate, I'm interested at least. -- Joseph Carter <knghtbrd@debian.org> Debian GNU/Linux developer PGP: E8D68481E3A8BB77 8EE22996C9445FBE The Source Comes First! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mere nonexistence is a feeble excuse for declaring a thing unseeable.
