Hello Andrew,

I did when I was RC, I do not know about all others. There may
be a few left that don`t. What I do know is that there are some I
do not want to route my mail through them.

Sabotaging an attempt to change P4 is easier than actually changing
it. As we found out some three decades ago. :-(
Other than that: Obviously one can not form a network with nodes
that can only make outgoing calls. One needs at least some nodes that
can accept incoming calls. That alone places Pvt nodes in a lower
class. A fully fledged node - a "node of good standing" - supports both
incoming and outgoing calls.
Cheers, Michiel
