I know that many systems - mine included - do not directly use the nodelist any more like FrontDoor and its clones did. And so people are afraid to change their connection information.

 BF>    Yeah, you probably know the answer to that?

My experience is that the fear is unfounded. People that for some reason are forced to change their connect info usually have 95% of there links restored within 48 hours.

You yourself had to move from felten.yi.org to eljaco.se. That was inconvenient, but it did not casue anty serious problems did it?

No, I do not think so. What is stopping you from letting binkd listen on port 24554 and forget Argus. Or Tedious or whatever you call it?

What happens if I start dropping mail for you on port 24555 instead of port 24554?


Cheers, Michiel
