It isn't a bad thing.  It's just that Beorn wouldn't feel like he 
had any control over that, and therefore is against it.  He's also 
against any kind of changes to Fidonet, preferring to keep it in a 
depressed state instead of promoting it's growth.  Why?  I'm not 
real sure, other than he's a bitter old has-been with no actual 
power to control anything, but can't admit that.

Ignore him and let's keep moving Fidonet forward.
