Ward & Mark:
ml>> then there's also the time when it would take months for Z2 to
ml>> pick up and apply Z1 nodelist updates... like the system i was
ml>> first involved with... according to the archives of Z2 nodelists,
ml>> it wasn't listed until months and months (years! actually) after
ml>> P4 was put in place...
WD> That's a claim, not a proven statement, about something which may or
WD> may not have occured some 33 years ago.
WD> Please don't break-open my mouth about multiple historic ZC1s unable
WD> of producing ZONE1-segments in a timely and reliable manner ... Or Bob
WD> Seaborn RIP delaying ZONE1-segments in the limited ZSEGS-distribution
WD> ... anything to paint a bleak picture of Z2 and its ZC was acceptable.
WD> I would say that your whole story of not being listed and it taken
WD> years for that to happen (your words, not mine) is a gross
WD> misrepresentation of the truth. If you can't back-up your claim, you
WD> shouldn't make it in the first place ... so here's your chance...
ml>> P4 was put in place June 9th, 1989 ...
WD> Actually, you have no clue when it was put in place as you only
WD> copied that date from the current version 4.07. If there is a version
WD> 4.07, then there were versions 4.01->6 before that date.
WD> You seem to be living a fidonet of times gone by, "who" did "what" in
WD> 1987-1988-1989 in Fidonet is fairly irrelevant these days and if you
WD> want to stop talking about measuring penises, then I suggest you put
WD> yours where it belongs and do something which improves Fidonet other
WD> than lecturing people about stuff which no-one cares about.
WD> Life is good, as Maurice would say, and he is right on thatone.
This thread is not an issue which needs to be discussed between the FTSC and
the FidoNet community. These events took place over 30 years ago and no
amount of discussion will change them at this point. Take it to NetMail or
another echo, please.
