Hi Kai,

There are other Regions/Nets, where you see regular new systems. They install mostly Mystic, apply for a node number, mostly for nostalgic reasons, and after a while they disappear without a trace, because the current fidonet doesn't conform to their memories of the old days. But their nodelist entries remain forever...

Yes, there is no other way. But you only do this maybe a couple of times a year at most, so it doesn't bother me...

Bye, Wilfred.
