Hello Michiel!

 That is not true. I cannot recall the net numbers and there are no
 nodelists to confirm, but the later 500 net had a different number in one
 of the eastcoast regions, as had the Scandinavian countries and GB.
 There was also another Dutch net, indpendent of HCC, with among others
 Ignaat Simons, who worked for Philips.

 One of the disasters on telco costs that happened at the time was dat mail
 from the Netherlands to Norway, was routed via the region host in the USA.

 It would be nice if a nodelist from that time would surface.

 All in all I think that Bjorns statement, that the Nordic nets were there
 firts, is true.

 A meet with Henk Wevers could also uncover a lot on the Fidohistory of Z2.
