   So as you might recall, I've taken over some othernets in the past - only to   
   see lots of initial messages of "great" and "thanks for keeping it alive",   
   then it to fade away and die.   
      
   Do we need another net? Could these linux focused conversations run an   
   existing othernet - that most of us are already on?   
      
   I'd be interested in getting those messages (didnt realize there was a   
   linuxnet?) - wasnt this run by Gert and it faded away?
