TL> For years folks have used the zones greater than 6 to operate
 TL> Non-Fidonet networks.  For years many of us have shared zone
 TL> numbers with little or no problems.

 TL> Apparently there is a move in Zone 2 by some Fidonet syspps in
 TL> Russia to start a new Fidonet Zone 7.

 TL> When I've posed questions about how they plan to coordinate
 TL> this use with existing Zone 7 users, I haven't received any
 TL> comments that would lead me to believe they will consider the
 TL> kind of cooperative use that exists now.

i don't think anyone actually reads this area... ain't been anything in
here but 'bot for years...
