Agreed. Seems to be happening as we speak even.

Stable links can always be aquired, they just have to be willing do set them
up. 

I've never really seen any codepage issues, just a small language barrier is
all. Most (if not all) of them are definitely understandable - even better than
some native English speakers.

I'm not sure I understand. If there were any recent netmail bugs in Mystic, I
was under the assumption they have been fixed in the latest version(s)? The
last netmail issue I thought was something to do with point addresses, but I
could be wrong. At the moment, there seems to be a pretty raunchy timestamp
bug, though.. which hopefully was just an oversight and easily fixable upon
James' return.

Either way, if you notice anything that stands out, I think Paul Hayton
(3:770/1) is keeping a tally of known issues to give to the developer if/when
he comes back to the hobby (took a leave of absense for family matters, if I'm
not mistaken).

Regards,
Nick
