When you consider probably 95%+ of folks posting/active are 'only sysops' it seems a bit of a farce to have a sysops only echo. But in terms of the housekeeping info and stuff important to sysops I'd say this echo is the place to keep and eye on

"Discussions about fsxNet. Chat about current network operations, plans for the future and how to best implement them."

I do tend to post housekeeping to fsx_gen but could cross-post here also.

To be honest I wonder if we should have this echo as a mandatory sub so that admin messages always get through to bbs sysops instead of relying on posting to general echo... which was (historically) the all things to all people echo... and at one stage the only echo.

More to ponder.
