Count me in.  Do we need to work up a UUCP mapping project. 

Also... Would a pgp encrypted mail system with decryption of messages at the endpoint make sense?

*gulp*

So /you're/ the person that had the domain name we originally wanted.  ;-)

We actually decided that we liked "Retro Comp(uting) . Net(work)" and 
have registered that name.  There is a wiki(…) and forum(…), but the 
main website isn't up yet.

We are about a week into the discussions.  Please join us in the 
#retronet group on the Synchronet network.  (irc.chivanet.org)

~sigh~of~relief~

I think we would love to welcome more members into the RetroNet.

As much as anything else, the idea is to build a community of friendly 
folks that want to play / learn / help each other, likely in direct 
relation to retro computing.
