   ups sorry Gert i will add /152 in next run of dk-point update, and also miss   
   /130, helo Benny you do a very bad job on maintaining it, shit happends :)

   yep its just a sign of how old dk-point is   
      
    US> so the default pointlist support moved from fakenet distributions to

   yep thats not a problem, i just wished to do the fakenet with z2pnt so it have   
   the whole zone2 nodelist embeded, this needs a small change to dk-point to   
   accept whole zone instaed of only regions   
      
   i have complete c source for this if one would like to add it   
      
    US> The Poss format that has been introduced first within region 50 has    
    US> some limitations, that makes it impossible to set points on hold or to    
    US> down   
      
   boss format is the most portable format lets keep it, but time is now more for   
   dk-point ot move on to handle z2pnt if that is possible   
      
    BP>> basicly i still love dk-point with the embeded nodelist from region23   
    BP>> :)   
      
    US> whatever format each user wants to create ... with the Boss format    
    US> pointlist and the related nodelist you can convert to whichever list    
    US> format you want to be your favorite   
      
   the goal with dk-point was that points only needed dk-point to be up an   
   running when there was modem users with 1200 baud, i did have a few in the   
   beginning, and downloading the nodelist from that time took ages, then   
   dk-point was build to reduce the problem with a benefitted add as a pointlist   
      
    BP>> i hope it will be possible to make it same for the global pointlists   
    BP>> in a compatible way

    US> pointlists.   
      
   please put them on hold for me, i like to have them as c code if possible, so   
   i can make ebuilds to them   
      
    US> so in short: the Boss format is the least common denominator (LCD)   
      
   hehe i think you are :)
