The only requirement is for someone to be the "moderator of record" with the 
distribution systems.  It's not a Fido requirement and no rules are req'd.  
CB_RADIO, HAM-ECHO, and AUTORACE don't have any rules per se' that are 
regularly posted.
In Europe, packet radio is allowed on 11mtrs.  This topic is just emerging as 
a discussion in CB_RADIO & HAM-ECHO.  I don't know if it's on topic here, but 
I'm sure we'll be told shortly.
It's interesting to note that someone is playing with packet radio, using 
49MHz walkie talkies...:)  I can't wait to read how they accomplished 
building up a network with battery powered HT's and rubber duck antennas.
... What can you do at 3 AM?   Psssttt - got a modem??
