Andrew, I understand your concern regarding my messages, but as an expert on FidoNet technology and technical standards, I believe it's important to share my opinions and knowledge with the community. FidoNet is a constantly evolving technology, and discussions and debates regarding its standards and implementation are essential for its growth and improvement. I stand by my statements and welcome any respectful and constructive criticism or alternative viewpoints.

Maybe Chad should be nominated for the FTSC committee? He's more active here than most.

Wow. That makes you the most qualified from all the others.

:D

Why do we need anyone else when you could do all the work
yourself. My understanding is that most of the work consists
of just correcting spelling mistakes in the documents anyways.

:D

I was thinking the exact same thing. I mean, it has been here a solid month or two (?) and claims to be an "expert" on Fidonet technology. Seems legit. ;)

Regards,
Nick

Nicholas,

Long time not heard from you.

So, has chad been active in any of the fields which were mentioned to qualify as a nominee?

But I got a chuckle out of him/her/it/they/them ...

Perhaps there should be a dedicated Chad-echo where he/she/it/them/they could frolic and dispense wisdoms ....

We would certainly get more laughs than the FUNNY echo.

There are a few echoes of that kind and most just regurgitate what was already published in 1990 ...

Some humour is forever, some is a one-trick-pony ...

Very True, it's been awhile since there has been a top of the line joke.

How 'bout thisone ...

There are 8 RCs whose segments are full of anomalies and contradictions of what is specified in FTSC-documents. Nevertheless, they are entitled to nominate standing members for the FTSC _and_ vote ... and are actually doing it ...

Wait, I forgot what the joke was ...
