   Purging R48 Poland from the Nodelist   
   Ward Dossche - 2:292/854   
      
   After close to 5 years of inactivity R484s participation in   
   Fidonet has become highly ineffective.   
      
   The RC has been inactive for years, no new segments were   
   received.   
      
   Attempts were made to get in touch via most any technology   
   available .. netmail, echomail, direct, routed, email, even   
   the Fidonet Facebook-group; but no-one was able to get in   
   contact and ensure continuity. The only method not attempted   
   was carrier-pigeon.   
      
   So, with a heavy heart; R48 Poland will be deleted from the   
   nodelist again (at one time it was already gone). If the   
   situation changes and the region becomes viable again; that   
   could change but for the moment it is what it is.   
      
   I do not believe in placeholder sysops, a methodology which   
   may be preferred elsewhere, but choose an as clean as   
   possible nodelist.   
      
   Greetings,
