=================================================================
|
||
|
||
Does anyone out there now have a webpage going for Region 14? The
|
||
previous one disappeared [along with the FidoNet History project] when
|
||
Marge Robbins retired from FidoNet without notice.
|
||
|
||
Is there a page for Region 15? And what about John Mudge [REC17]? Did
|
||
he get kidnapped?
|
||
|
||
I understand the concept of burnout but not the concept of
|
||
disappearing without at least a minimal "So long" or "Get bent" on the
|
||
way out so folks can adjust links or displays. That's just rude and
|
||
there is never any excuse for being rude according to my mother. Must
|
||
be upbringing or a lack thereof?
|
||
|
||
And speaking of upbringing, WHY do we still not have an International
|
||
Coordinator in FidoNet? If we had 7 Zones instead of 6 [and we sure
|
||
need another Zone], there couldn't be any deadlocks over politics or
|
||
personalities. Unfortunately, FidoNet used to be a cooperative and
|
||
friendly network and the founders didn't visualize this petty
|
||
deadlock we've been engaged in for YEARS!
|
||
|
||
And speaking of coming back from the dead ... the FTSC seems to have
|
||
reconstructed and reorganized as indicated in the article below to
|
||
that effect. Now, if they just get a blessing from Tom Jennings [he's
|
||
at: tomj@wps.com, guys] for this effort, I can change the FTSC listing
|
||
from the current mirror of the old Nugent site to the new FTSC site.
|
||
That would represent a potential bright spot in an otherwise dreary
|
||
same old.
|
||
|
||
For those of you who read Russian, there is a Russian version of
|
||
FidoNews available, now. Check out the Letters to the Editor. It's not
|
||
a translation of this thing. It is their own newsletter. More power to
|
||
them!
|
||
|
||
Also note a new addition to the Future History list. We're just a year
|
||
away from the International BBS Week celebration. Watch here for
|
||
updates and information. If they get a website going, I'll list it in
|
||
the FidoNet by Internet section.
|
||
|
||
The Echomail weenies are still fighting and arguing about elections
|
||
and distributions and who's censoring who. Some things never change.

Hi!
|
||
|
||
On 15 June 1997 was founded "Planet Fidonet" electronic newspaper,
|
||
that issues three or four times a week. Only in Russian now, sorry.

IP-Nodes
|
||
By Ward Dossche, 2:292/854
|
||
ZC/2
|
||
|
||
In zone-2 we have started to discuss in-depth how to include IP-nodes
|
||
into the nodelist.
|
||
|
||
The topics of discussion have been about the desirability, the
|
||
IP-technology itself, the many possible ways of implementation, etc...
|
||
|
||
All this talk is going on in an international conference entitled
|
||
IP_CONNECT.
|
||
|
||
This conference reaches already a multitude of regions in zone-2 and
|
||
is now also available via 1:270/101 AKA PAOnline AKA George Peace.
|
||
|
||
If you want to be involved in the discussion and/or the implementation
|
||
please try to link in.
|
||
|
||
Once again, the name is IP_CONNECT!

From "Voting Procedure", published in Fidonews, 11 August 1997:

FIDONEWS 14-37 Page 4 15 Sep 1997
|
||
|
||
|
||
counted."
|
||
|
||
"To provide the required split between 2 and 3 year terms, Standing
|
||
Members will be ranked by the number of "Yes" votes received. The
|
||
top half of this ranking will be appointed for 3 years, and the
|
||
remaining candidates for 2 years."

year appointment.

Telephone Info
|
||
by Leonard Erickson, 1:105/56, shadow@krypton.rain.com
|
||
|
||
This time I'm going to list the official ITU-T country code list.
|
||
Note that the ITU-T has divided the world into 9 "Zones", and
|
||
generally countries get assigned a number starting with their zone
|
||
number. There have been exceptions where a Zone was out of numbers.
|
||
These are now limited to Aruba, Greenland and the Faroe Islands.
|
||
|
||
Included are some cases where a "country" shares a country code with
|
||
others (notably in ITU zones 1 & 7) or uses a subset of another
|
||
country's code (for example, Liechtenstein)
|
||
|
||
Note that in some cases neighboring countries do *not* use these codes
|
||
to call the country. For example, San Marino is treated as part of
|
||
Italy by the Italian phone system, but actually has its own country
|
||
code and that code *is* used when dialing outside Italy.
|
||
|
||
Also, some codes have been assigned, but are not being used yet. I've
|
||
tried to note these where I have info.
|
||
|
||
Finally, several country codes are being returned to "reserved"
|
||
status, either because the country has merged with another (like
|
||
Zanzibar) or because they have asked to be included in another
|
||
country's phone system (Guam, and the CNMI).
|
||
|
||
The codes immediately before the name are the ISO 3166 two letter code
|
||
for the country or territory.
