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,

Ward
