Hi mark,

On 2014-02-03 19:01:51, you wrote to me:

Yeah, of course, but than he would get a totally different nodenumber. But we
shouldn't look too much into the technicalities of a Zone change, it was just
my "humorous" way of pointing Gert at a mistake in his configuration.

Of course there is. There were also 1 or 2 minor changes in the text of the
moderator rules, so he obviously did some thinkering with his config...

The path from me to him wasn't that long:

@PATH: 230/150 261/38 712/848 280/464

I very much doubt Janis's or Scotts system caused this, because than we should
see much more of those mistakes. (Although I wouldn't rule out that it's
Janis's attempt at world domination ;)). And it arrived here in that state, so
I can rule out my system...

Bye, Wilfred.
