Re: [44net] 44 net connectivity

More than that, Ubiquiti routers allow even 3rd party SW addons, like ampr-ripd, since they use Debian ase their base distribution.

The original goal was conectivity, global if possible. But there simply is no incentive for using it anymore. Dx clusters are reachable on the regular internet, repeaters and reflectors too. Specialized sites dedicated to contesting are homebrew stuff, or whatever, use regular internet access. They can not rely on a network where only 10k users are reachable. And BBS systems are outdated and replaced by forums, mailing lists and discussion groups on various platforms. Unless we can find desirable services that really need a "private" globally routeable network for them to work, there will be no real new users influx beyond the occasional network enthusiast.
