Hi Michiel!
Friday May 30 2025 12:18, you wrote to me:

Why should I care about that if this is the most convenient
technical solution for me and nodes of Crimean network?

Okay, we agree on that.
MvdV> I am merely pointing out to you how you choice is perceived. To me
MvdV> it looks like a political choice.
There is no need to look for something in a purely technical
document, as nodelist, that is not there and should not be there.
MvdV> The fact that you claim to have the gift of bilocation - via your
MvdV> node in Moscow - does not help either.
This is a strictly technically reasonable decision also. It was
agreed with R50C and N5020C. Physically, this node is also located on my
home server, since shutting down this node due to Michael`s departure
from Fidonet would have caused a large number of problems not only for
R50.
MvdV> Plus that the location of node 460/16 is listed as
MvdV> "Simferopol-Russia".
I don`t like it either, but it`s the result of a very old
tradition and it`s not for me to break it. Each node makes its own line
for the nodelist. Technically the line is perfect. It is not in my
authority to force him to be politically correct.
MvdV> Sotty, Simferopol is Cremea, not Russia. Don`t tell me that is a
MvdV> purely technical decision.
Unfortunately, this really reflects the mood of this sysop. :(
MvdV>>> I don`t think there is much you can do about the country code
MvdV>>> in the telephone number other than just drop it. Which may be
MvdV>>> an option.
SM>> It can`t be an option for me. We have a PSTN out only node in our

MvdV> I see no POTS only node in net 460...
2:460/16 is PSTN out only node. Besides, I have other PSTN only
links. It would be wrong to provide his phone number if he cannot accept
incoming connections.
MvdV>>> The majority of Fidonet nodes is IP only.
MvdV>>> Or at least do you need to advertise it in the nodelist?
SM>> Yes. I must.
MvdV> why? If it is only for that one pesumed POTS only node in net 460, it
MvdV> can be dealt wuth by a private nodelist.
I must accept any netmail for nodes in my network.

MvdV> FPD??
1.3.2 Geography
Each level of FidoNet is geographically contained by the level immediately
above it. A given geographic location is covered by one zone and one region
within that zone, and is either in one network or not in a network. There
are never two zones, two regions, or two networks which cover the same
geographic area.
If a node is in the area of a network, it should be listed in that network,
not as an independent in the region. (The primary exception to this is a
node receiving inordinate amounts of host-routed mail; see section 4.2).
Network boundaries are based on calling areas as defined by the local
-------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
telephone company. Even in the case of areas where node density is so great
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
that more than one network is needed to serve one local calling
area, a geo graphic guideline is used to decide which nodes belong to
what network.
Network membership is based on geographic or other purely technical rationale.
---------------------------------------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is not based on personal or social factors.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

MvdV>>> Even in a county at war it should not have to take so long to

SM>> Did you know how to be be sure under conditions of partial IP address
SM>> blocking?
MvdV> If the "partial IP blocking" makes the node unreachable fro inyone alse
MvdV> then the node is unreachable and the nodelist should reflect that
MvdV> reality.

Should it be removed from the nodelist?

Ok. Condoms are 98% safe. Suggest a 98% safe method. ;) Scientists
consider that the percentage of reliability is 97%. Suggest a 97% safe
method.
Have a nice night.
