Rob, take a chill pill.
Take a look at the HamWAN, HAMNET, and what I'm doing here in the bay area.
It's very much alive, and we're educating people about high-speed ham packet
networks everyday. I had over 200 people at the TAPR forum at Dayton this
year for my talk.
I am not talking about the work you do locally but about the way you approach
"us" after you have found some
problem with your gateway implementation.
Not even mainly about the discussion that just has started, but about a similar discussion
that was started
about the same topic some time ago. You continuously refer to Brian's system at UCSD
as "broken", and
I don't like that attitude.
Especially not because it really is possible to fit in your system to co-exist in the
network as it is now, as is
demonstrated by our gateway.
