Other than someone else taking over, I would say this would be a better
option. Fidonet has LINUX which is barely used. I don't know if it's
still in the backbone. The question is, why would people post and wait
a few days for replies when they can just stick something on the web
and have answers in seconds? It's a very niche crowd these days. It's
not like it used to be where things had to be split up to save
bandwidth and you didn't get what you don't want kind of thing.
