Current IC/ZC/RC relations are actually good, segments are cooperatively 
exchanged at all levels to form the Nodelist, even the Fidonews goes out on
time. No fuckups, games or frowny face sad puppies to be found anywhere.

Things just sortof died down and became quiet as of summer last year. Now 
overall Fido is just a lot of test messages, the usual Mystic/Synchronet/Linux
banter, and some really good recipes from time to time. The only person making
noise is the current troll in Fidonews, only because it became too quiet in 
there with no more zone-war. And even the troll is getting bored now...

If its all doom and gloom, do something about it... there are no rulers, only
people wearing hats that can be removed at any time. Checks and balances.
