Take it easy. Breath slowly. Sit down and take a Bex.



All will be well in the end.

There has been a major upheaval in mail distribution in Sydney.

A lot of work had to be done in a little time.

Please allow a little slack.

They're all coming in here.

They're all coming in to 640/201.

They're also probably coming in elsewhere.

I will not be dropping anything, Rowan.

My days of chasing and dropping are over.

Now that we have activity in all areas of the NA backbone,
I'm not about to go backwards.

However, I appreciate your concerns.

But I suggest that the reason why you imported those echoes
no longer exists.

The same goes for other people who were forced to shop
overseas for echoes they couldn't get here.

Clashes will take a few weeks to sort out.

But there is nothing to get hysterical about -- unless, of course, people
are paying ISD rates to bring in dupes.

And anyone still doing that should stop it.

If you want to continue your imports, I suggest you talk with
Steven Lutrov about cutting the feeds in those areas
to Sydney.
 
Cheers.
