After thinking this discussion through, probably not much advantage,
given that now with the advent of continuous mailers and binkp we can
effectively crashmail most any node in Fidonet, instead of relying on
zone gates and toll calls.
There are some here helping to test that listed nodes are available
and haven't fallen off, and as RCs and NCs treat attrition reasonably
(by removing dead nodes, creating IP nets when geographic nets are no
longer needed and consolidating in their own areas when possible) I
think we'll be in a better place.
... Is the tuning appropriate?
