In the interest of keeping the west alive as well, I would be
very interested in adding to the network. I know the lyndon at
atha would want some input as well.
Nebulus requires more disk (it's currently at 630 megs) but
ports, modems and ether are already here. I am sure that if we
all discuss this with earnest we can pull it off. I heard, also
at that famous UU meeting that UUNET is in the process of setting
up a statewide network of machines as well. I do not see the
point of UUNET-north if we are going to compete with that. I
would like to see Canadian money stay here not drift across the
border in NNTP packets.
This is a poll of all that are reading, what would you like to
see in a UUNET-north. I don't think a free for all ftp - uucp
gateway would be a good idea. If we pooled out expertise I
believe we could pull this off.
Telly, do you want to take the lead, nebulus will disappear for
while! sigh!
