Why? It was quite easy to implement on our gateway. And I did some extra work to make it easier for me to maintain, else it would have been even simpler.

I suspect they were personal reasons; Phil has retired from networking entirely and between battling cancer and turning his remaining time to teaching high-school students about science and engineering, I know he's not interested in AMPRNet anymore. He said so when we had dinner a few weeks ago. - Brian

Phil is active again in the Ham Microwave Networking with the AREDN group.
His forum posts are as educational and interesting as ever...
