My Opinion -- the station that puts Net-44 traffic on the Amateur Radio
frequencies is responsible for its content / security. The 'network' has
no responsibility to enforce any country's Amateur Radio Service rules.
Other than that, follow the TOS and AUP at
http://www.ampr.org/tos.txt
I favor a fully routable Internet address space for net 44.x.x.x -- subnets
and individual hosts/stations can firewall to their own needs.

I guess my point is - there are those who sit around and cry and beat their
forehead with their fist over authentication, the rules, third party
traffic etc etc, and there are those who just go ahead, build it, and use
it.
The difficulty for me is, I returned to 44net hoping for the latter, or at
the very least some tutorials on the wiki where it might be done, meet some
people that are doing it, but the reality is more that the 44net list is
dominated by crybabies who would far rather point the finger, overtly
discuss, and get irate at the rulebreakers than actually build anything
positive.
My suggestion, if you were interested, which you're not, is to sit back a
little and let the people who ARE ACTUALLY BUILDING SOMETHING, along with
those who DO ACTUALLY INTEND to build something to get on with the task and
keep your distracting discussion to yourself.
Or maybe this is just never going to happen on this list, and we are
forever doomed to listen to the repeated diatribe of how to overtly
authenticate and heavily police and analyse every vagrant network ping like
its' some heinous DDOS attack. If so, why not start a new list yourself and
name it appropriately? Hrm?? :)
Are we going put together a wiki on how to build a routable
internet-connected 44net or not? What will it be? If we're going to
shout, take offence, throw toys, and do nothing then I don't care for it.
Make a decision.
