==============================================
Greetings Y'all!

When Felten claims to know everything there is about things he knows
nothing about, i.e. the claim that I (roy witt) created the following
echo, y'all can refer to this record and be able to comme to your own
conclusions about the truth and nothing but the truth.

                    FIDO_SYSOP Echomail Conference
                          Conference Rules

This echo, FIDO_SYSOP, is for FidoNet sysops only. Fidonet SysOps
are defined for the purpose of these rules as any operator of a node
number which appears in the International Fidonet nodelist as issued
weekly by the Fidonet IC and the ZC's.

Anything of interest to Fidonet SysOps is on topic in FIDO_SYSOP.
The topics of discussion are not subject to moderator interpretation
or restriction, and moderator warnings and/or feed cuts may only be
issued for actions such as flaming and personal attacks, or excessively
annoying behavior, such as vulgar or lewd language, spamming the echo,
illegal activities in the echo, or any other case specifically mentioned
in these rules.

 1. A Point may participate in this Conference if operated by a FidoNet
 nodelisted SysOp. If the bossnode is not operated by the posting SysOp,
 the SysOp's FidoNet nodelisted address must be included as part of the
 signature in the text of the message. Any Fidonet nodelisted SysOp may
 also participate in this Conference from another Fidonet nodelisted
 SysOp's BBS system, provided their real name and nodelisted address
 appears in the signature of the text of the message. In such a case,
 the SysOp operating the BBS that the second SysOp is posting from must
 restrict the access of the echo to other Fidonet nodelisted SysOps
 *only*. The forging of messages to make them appear to be posted by
 another Fidonet nodelisted SysOp may, upon confirmation by the moderator
 of the message's non-authenticity from the second SysOp identified in
 the signature line, be interpreted by the moderator as excessively
 annoying behavior.

 2. This Conference may not be gated outside of FidoNet without specific
 permission from the Conference moderator. No such arrangement may be
 made by the moderator if it could result in distribution of this
 Conference to persons who are not SysOps of systems listed in the FidoNet
 nodelist. This is an ECHOMAIL Conference. It may not be gated into any
 alternate technology which would make it impossible or impractical to
 enforce the stated distribution restrictions.

 3. There is a "real name only" restriction in place for this
 conference. A Fidonet member may post a message using an alias, but
 such messages must contain within them the real name of the SysOp in
 the signature line.

 4. Once a year, as close to mid-February as practical, an election is
 held for the Moderator of FIDO_SYSOP.  Upon completion of this
 election, the former moderator must turn the password for the elist
 robot over to the new moderator and yield the position.  If a
 moderator is unable to complete his or her term, he or she may name
 a replacement to finish the term, revealing the elist password to
 the replacement moderator.  Should a moderator disappear from the
 conference without leaving a successor, a replacement moderator may
 be chosen by the echo participants to serve until the next regular
 election. Although the Elist Keeper may not be bound by echo
 conference rules, he is specifically requested to facilitate access
 to the FIDO_SYSOP conference listing for such a replacement moderator
 in the event that the elist password is not available or the previous
 moderator refuses to yield the moderator position.

 5. Any moderator of FIDO_SYSOP, present or future, *MAY NOT* make
 *ANY CHANGES* to these rules without the approval of the echo's
 participants through a public vote in the Conference itself. If a
 vote on a rule change is deadlocked, the status quo will be preserved.

 6. Personal attacks, flames, and name calling are not welcome in
 this conference. If you cannot discuss an issue without resorting
 to name calling or personal attacks, find another echo to discuss
 your issues in. If the moderator feels the attack or flame was
 excessively out of line, or the SysOp involved continues to resort
 to attacks after repeated warnings, a feed cut to the SysOp
 involved can be issued with no further warnings to the offending
 system.

 7. A feed cut or a "vacation" from the echo may not be issued without
 at least three warnings to the offender being given by the moderator,
 whether such warnings are done via netmail or publically in the
 conference itself. A "vacation" may not last longer than four weeks,
 and a feed cut may not last longer than three months. There is no limit
 on the number of "vacations" or feed cuts that may be issued by the
 moderator, provided that such "vacations" or feed cuts are consistant
 with the Conference rules.

 8. Deliberate retransmittal of the Conference to another system
 which is not run by a FidoNet SysOp or providing access to a SysOp
 who has been "cut" from the Conference is grounds for a feed cut
 from the Conference, with no right of appeal, subject to the terms
 of rule #7. This rule may be interpreted to include a point of a
 system wherein the poster of the message is not properly identified
 as a Fidonet nodelisted SysOp, according to the methods defined in
 rules #1 and #3.

 9. This Conference is the collective property of all FidoNet Sysops
 and not that of the moderator. Should the moderator feel it
 necessary to make significant changes in distribution or rules of
 the Conference, such changes should be done in COOPERATION with the
 FidoNet Sysops participating. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES is the Conference
 restriction to FidoNet Sysops to be removed.

 10. In the interest of communication amongst *all* Fidonet SysOps,
 this echo specifically is meant for participation in English only. While
 other languages may be allowed at certain times by the moderator, such
 messages should not be solely in those other languages, and an attempt to
 communicate in English with the other SysOps participating in the
 Conference must be made by all participants. The prolonged posting of
 messages consisting solely of languages other than English, or messages
 using codepages such as Cryllic which cannot be readily understood by
 those participating in English may be deemed excessively annoying
behavior
 by the moderator.

 11. Commercial posts are strictly prohibited in the FIDO_SYSOP
Conference.
