Re: [44net] A new era of IPv4 Allocations

That's a false statement. The goal of ham radio in general is to provide improvement, learning and experimenting. Sorry for being blunt, but somehow the goal of amateur radio was lost here... It was never its goal to provide "easy adoption" of anything. We have CB and PMR radio for that. As we have commercial internet for the networking needs of network noobs. Otherwise we would not have our licensing exams and the licensing system, and the restrictions for using the 44 network space. And as the terms and conditions of the ampr network say, is is no replacement for commercial internet access. I think this organisation and network has lost its goal, direction and its appeal since the passing of Brian Cantor, and the rise of TACs and other "management" organisms that don't seem to share to much with the ham radio spirit of pioneering and inovation. So unless you care to keep this thing uncentralised and distributed the only direction of the 44net is downwards into oblivion. If this is the goal, then you are on the right track. BTW, speaking of the TAC and its decisions, if 100 people speak against something proposed and supported by a small number of people, you may actually consider that the specific proposal may be wrong... Right now I haven't seen to many traction for the proposal here, other than 2-3 people. I wish you all good luck, and will remain just as a bystander with popcorn in both hands, watching the game. 73s.
