    Description:

    This is the Fidonews Echo. Area tag: FIDONEWS

    Moderator:

    The Fidonews editor, as listed in the nodelist and in the banner of
    the most recent issue of the Fidonews weekly publication, is the
    permanent moderator of this echo.

    Policy:

    The Echopol1 policy applies where applicable, with the exception that
    characters above 0x7e hex, 126 decimal (sometimes known as HI ASCII)
    *are* permitted (i.e. para V.18.a does not apply).

    Availability:

    Every sysop is encouraged to make this echo available to any user,
    that's interested in reading and writing in it.

    Purpose:

    The purpose of this echo is the discussion of recent articles (within
    the last two weeks) in the Fidonews publication.

    -=-=-=-=-

    General Rules:

    1. The moderator's ruling is final.

    2. No vulgar language. This includes, but is not limited to, flames
    and profanities.

    3. Discuss only articles printed in the Fidonews Publication. A certain
    amount of straying from this is however expected and encouraged.

    4. In the event that some ingenious person figures out a way to bypass
    these rules, the moderator reserves the right to make a rule to
    end the situation.

    5. Articles are not to be submitted nor will they be accepted in the
    echo. If you can write a comment in the echo, you can just as easily
    make that a personal letter to the editor -- everyone in the echo
    will still see it, only a few days later.

    I'm getting there! I'm getting there! Be patient!

    I'm gonna write a novel! Talk about really gum up the works!

    I never swear. I swear.

    Something tells me I better get started working on that novel ...

    Methinks the moderator has already done that. In a unique and
    novel way. That nobody (except me) has noticed.

    That rule applies only to articles. Novels can be accepted in
    the echo itself. See how ingenious I am? Now all I have to do is
    find the time to type it all in ...

    Oh. That rule change the moderator made without noting it in
    the rules? He eliminated it from the rules.

    No more "real names only" nonsense. The moderator finally
    realized that none of us are real anyway. So why have such a
    silly rule as part of the rules?

    M >Fidonews Editor, 2:2/2, Moderator

    No one will ever accuse Björn Felten of taking himself seriously.
