Well.... an update on this.  I've tried contacting Chad (the ZC) via email, Fido netmail, and Linuxnet echomail, and have had no response.  I'll give it a little longer, but not gonna hold my breath.

If anyone knows another way to contact him, that would be great, and helpful.  Basically wanting to know if he intends to continue running LinuxNet, and/or how he would feel about letting someone else do it.

Please advise here if anyone gets any further news...  Thanks.
