FOOD FOR THOUGHT
=================================================================
I have backed off my participation in Fidonet, trying to limit myself
to these type of discussions. The wars, past animosities and the
constant rehashing of the butt hurt isn't worth it any more.

How to become the next Zuckerberg
By Björn Felten
We all know that Mark Zuckerberg became filthy rich from his FaceBook
invention. So how can you become even more filthy rich?
Well, here's a tip for you:
When I lately could not send or receive MMS messages via my cell
phone, it turned out that I had to disable my WiFi connection to make
it work.
That sounds perfectly obvious to me -- unless the phone could
automatically translate a phone number into an IP ditto. How can it
when most WiFi connected phones are hiding behind a NATted IP like
e.g. 192.168.xxx.xxx?
So, the idea is to create an app where you can register your phone
number with an IPv6 server.
My 3G number is +46 733 900 420. So I would get an IPv6
number for that phone as e.g. (using one of my many tunnels):
2001:16d8:ff00:467:3390:0420.
Using this info (easily converted with all your cell phone contact
numbers) you now could directly contact any cell phone of your choice.
But then again, it all depends on how long it will take for us
customers to force our providers to fully adopt IPv6.
If you still haven't understood how important the IPv4 to IPv6
transition is, you'll unfortunately be left alone on the station
when the IPv6 train leaves in just a couple of years...
Recommended reading: the IPV6 echo, available at any Fidoweb site
nearby you.

Remarks:
IO Incoming only (Node can not make outgoing IPv6 calls)
OO Outgoing only (Node can not accept incoming IPv6 calls)
INO4 No IPv4 (Node can not accept incoming IPv4 calls)
PO4 Prefers Out on 4 (Node can make outgoing IPv6 calls,
but is configured to try IPv4 first)
6DWN The IPv6 connectivity of this node is temporarely down.
DOWN This node is temporarely down for both IPv4 and IPv6
Notes:
To make an IPv6 connection to a node connected via 6to4 tunneling
one may have to force the mailer into IPv6 (-6 option in binkd's
node config). If the destination address is a 6to4 tunnel address
(2002::/16) Windows defaults to IPv4 if an IPv4 address is present.

JAMNNTPD SERVERS LIST
=================================================================
The Johan Billing JamNNTPd project
This is a list of known JamNNTPd servers working. They are essentially
the modern version of Bulletin Board Systems.
You connect to them using the newsreader of your choice and you don't
need any other software installed on your computer -- regardless of
operating system -- but that favourite mail client of yours.
Even smart phones can handle this, giving you the opportunity to get
your daily doses of fidonet on the bus, tram or train on the way to
your job, school or whatever.

How to Submit an Article
If you wish to submit an article for inclusion in the Fidonews, here
are some guidelines, if you send it as an attached file; the preferred
method if you want reasonable control over how the published article
will appear in the Fidonews:
a) Plain text. If you could type it on your keyboard, it's probably
quite OK. No line may be longer than 70 characters.
b) Put a title to the article. Put the title in two times. The first
time, on the first line, with an * before it. The second time, on
the second line, without the * and centered. This will help in the
format since the title with the * is removed and used in the index,
the second line will become the headline. On the third line, put
your name and FidoNet address, present or former. If former, you
may want to add some other address where you can be reached for
personal comments.
c) Deadline for article submission is Sunday, 22:00 UTC.
Help the Editor by following the above guides. Below are some subjects
and the file extension for the article as set in the configuration
file for the making of the Fidonews. Please help by putting the file
extension of the correct subject on the file name if known.
Ideas for Subject areas:
Subject File | Subject File
----------------------------------|----------------------------------
From the *C's *.css | Rebuttals to articles *.reb
Fidonet Regional News *.reg | Fidonet Net News *.net
Retractions *.rtx | General Fidonet Articles *.art

Fidonet's Int. Kitchen *.rec | Poet's Corner *.poe
Clean Humor & Jokes *.jok | Other Stuff *.oth
Fidonet Classified Ads *.ads | Corrections *.cor
Best of Fidonet *.bof | Letters to the Editor *.let
If you don't know or are not sure, send the article anyway. Put a .TXT
on it and I'll try to figure out where it should be in the Fidonews.
If you follow these simple guidelines, there should be little problem
in getting your article published. If your submission is too far out
of specs for the Fidonews, it will be returned to you and/or a message
sent informing you of the problem. This DOES NOT mean that your
article is not accepted. It means that there is something in it that I
can not fix and I need your help on it.

IMPORTANT! If you send the article via e-mail, make sure you put the
word "fidonews" somewhere in the subject line! That way it
will always pass the spam filter, ending up in the proper
folder.
Please include a message, telling me that you have sent an article.
That way I will know to look for it.
