Hello All!

  April 16, 1998  Release of V2.52 and probably the start of makenl_ng

  Dec, 1999       Work done by Michael Karcher et al. to have working
                  source code for makenl_ng

  July 12, 2004 - The history of Makenl_ng mentions the combination of
                  -Unpublished- without the Pvt tag.

  May, 2007       I seen to remember that ZC1 started using makenl_ng on
                  a Linux system.

  Dec, 2012       Again from memory ZC2 started using makenl_ng

  June, 2017      ZC4 has promised that he will implement makenl_ng
                  RSN.

  I could not find when ZC3 moved to makenl_ng, but I beleive he has.

  Number of individual sysops in the current nodelist: +/- 2640
  Number of individual sysops in Z4:  21 or 0.8%.

  Number of ZC's that offered to assist ZC4 with implementing makenl_ng
  on short term:  1.

  Number of ZC's that suggested to ignore Z4: 1.

  Time for the sysops of fidonet to wait for the implementation of
  -Unpublished- without the Pvt tag:  eternal.

  Wasted time of the developers of makenl_ng: ?????
