Re: [44net] Time to restructure the network?

Well, I think there are enough examples of how to do it (also already doing it within AMPRnet), lots of people who can contribute knowledge and will volunteer to help, the only thing we lack here in this group is someone (with the appropriate authority) who says "Lets' do that!" and gets everyone moving. That is why these discussions usually go on for a couple of days here, then die out, and nothing ever changes.  We are still running the same system as 25 years ago, with only the addition of RIP auto route distribution. This gets worse over time, as those who would like to change things see this and leave, and in the end we only have a number of old hats left who don't change anything. That does not improve our reputation...  sometimes newcomers ask "why do we use that method when it is so difficult to implement and it can all be done so much easier", and the only response can be "don't ask...".
