Ärende: Election '06: Ballot
============================
Hello Werner!

On Monday January 01 2007 02:49, you wrote to me:

 MvdV>> Pointing never got popular outside Z2.

 WD> Then nothing to surprise.

Once, a long time ago, there was a Z6 pointlist. It was included with the Z2
pointlist. Disappeared years ago...

[ cdp never taking off in outisde R24 ]

 MvdV>> 1) It came too late. FidoNet was already way on the downward
 MvdV>> slope when it was introduced.

 WD> Sad but true.

 MvdV>> 2) The docs were in German.

 WD> I'm not quite sure, but AFAIK they were rather soon translated to
 WD> English.

Still, FidoNet was evne further down the slope by then. Plus there were
alternatives - preconfigured point packages - in *dutch*.Bekive it or nit but
many peope still prefer something with documentation in their native language.

 MvdV>> Once there were 5600+ listed point in The Netherlands.

 WD> Which is, if I'm well informed, to a great extend the merit of the
 WD> HCC, which heavily sponsored fidonet in the beginning.

Right. Net 500 was the first net outside Northern America and it was sponsored
by the HCC. (Hobby Compouter Club) Not ony did it sponsor the net itself, it
also sponsored the TipTop link with Z1 (Randy Bush). I once was the cosysop of
the R28 TipTop gate (2:28/777).

Pointing was introduced here early in the game - 1989 or so - and ot was
heavily promoted within net 500. Henk Wevers wrote a trimmed down version of
his Dutchie mailer and points in net 500 had special privileges not given to
users.

When Fidonet expanded and more nets were created, the success of pointing
carried over to the new nets.

  ... that ends today's history lesson.. ;-)

 MvdV>> I see that there are still active points in R24 and some
 MvdV>> regions in the eastern part of Z2.

 WD> Right.

 MvdV>> But I do not think it is realistic to expect many new points to
 MvdV>> come join us.

 WD> Agree.

 MvdV>> Promoting fsc-1016 to FTS status won't change that.

 WD> Sad but true.

Let us put it up to a vote in March after the election for new standing
members.


Cheers, Michiel
