Okay, it certainly seems that you meet the "qualification" of having developed some FTN software. My biggest point in my question to Bjorn was that most (all?) of the other candidates on his "wishlist" would *NOT* meet that qualification, which seems silly in the first place. Why would documenting standards and practices in FidoNet require programming skills? This insistence on such a qualification seems to come largely from.... you. .... Bug free, cheap, on time, works.
