Hi Michiel!

 MvdV>>> So net 466 is dead and has been dead for years.

 SM>> Yes.

 MvdV> OK, so we agree on that.

The nodelist is the base of Fidonet connectivity.

 MvdV>>> RC46 is no doing his job. That begs the question how much more
 MvdV>>> dead woord there is in R46.

 SM>> Most of all.

 MvdV> Then it needs to be cleaned up.

Yes. Among other things, dead souls in the nodelist can influence the results of various types of voting.

 MvdV>>> Time for another RC?

 SM>> No. There is no better sysop for this position now.

 MvdV> How can you be so sure?

Because I was an R46C myself.

 MvdV> Has it been discussed in the R46 sysop area?

Yes.

 MvdV> If there is indeed no one who can clean up the Region then that is a
 MvdV> sad situation...

No one can be better than the current R46C. Why he doesn't do this, you need to ask him. This is a deeply technically literate person who has done and continues to do a lot for the development of FidoNet.

Have a nice night.
