Yup. I get occasional requests from prospective FTN developers about the inner workings of mailers and tossers and such and that's part of my reasoning for creating the wiki.synchro.net reference articles I have. That, and assisting my future self on recalling how this stuff works when I need to know.

FTSC chair? Nah. I was a member of the FTSC a while back and I really don't recall anything constructive happening during that period. Some new docs have come out of the FTSC since then which are helpful (so, that's good, and maybe a credit to Mr. Vlist), but I don't find much enjoyment in the fight to get documents corrected or published through the FTSC.
I would like to see more innovation in FTNs, but the battle against old standards/software/people just takes the fun out of it for me. That's why I prefer to innovate more in the realm of QWK, where I can innovate whenever I like and no one complains. --- SBBSecho 3.06-Linux * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)
