 WD> Bottom-line: you knowingly changed the content of the FIDONEWS
 WD> release-archive 

i beg to differ... how can you know this? it seems to me that she simply
created another file with the exact same name...

 WD> and sent it to Bob Seaborn knowing he considered you as a 
 WD> trustworthy source

trustworthy source or not, i doubt that she specifically _sent_ it to bobS...
more like she ran a simple "hatch areaname filename" command which lead to the
file being hatched into the stream to *all* of those who connect with her for
that area... not just bobS, i'm sure of that...

 WD> and that way your tinkered-with archive would get worldwide 
 WD> distribution. 

that would only have been if everyone got their copy via an IFDC feed...

 WD> Hadn't Mark Lewis drawn my attention to the anomaly, you would 
 WD> have gotten away with it.

oh, the dramatics! puhleeze...

 WD> Don't obscur people's vision by starting about the Filegate-stuff
 WD> as you did in your rebuttal. I don't care about Filegate-stuff and
 WD> you can play your petty little political games there.

as far as i can see, no one's vision is obscured but your own... you're not
seeing things as they possibly really happened... you've, instead, elected to
blow everything out of proportion and try to elicit some sort of payback on the
Z1C... call it a personal vendetta 'cause that's exactly what it is...

 WD> Here we are in Fidonet, there's a policy, the ZC's duties are
 WD> lined-out there and you abused them.

no, actually, she didn't abuse them... she could have sent the file on by other
means (ie: manual netmail attach to the Z1 RCs) to keep it out of the IFDC's
distribution chain... the point being that the file violated the rules of the
distribution network that was carrying and storing it...

i'd suggest a bit more seperation of certain historically fidonet "owned"
items... things like certain echos as well as certain file's distribution's...
more seperation from those private enterprises and groups that have helped
fidonet in a huge way by carrying the traffic during the "large" and "fat"
years and still carry that traffic even though the entire network is getting a
bit on the skinny side ...

 WD> The groundwork has been laid-down for your removal by the zone-1
 WD> RC's.  

yeah, only if you ignore the important stuff like the different hats one may
wear...

speaking of removal, when's that Z2C election supposed to start? there seem to
be several that have been missed based on your statements in the past O8)
