Seriously?
Why is this FTSC election so important to you and Bob each and every year?
So you vouch for him this was the real RJ?
But the question remains why he used your system for posting this message, and
not his own?

You are the one making a stink, not me :)
I accept the nomination.
So, what will you do to assist the FTSC during the next two years?
Are there any particular documents that you think needs updating?
Perhaps this question could be directed at all the candidates?
I think those who do not understand how the FTSC works would better ask the question to the rest of the candidates, rather then questioning the Election Coordinator.
Alas, the political game goes on as usual every year, and it's detrimental to our network for sure... :(

Because I had to completely reinstall (from old backups) my fidonet
nodes on completely new systems but while the hub operations are
mostly working again on my 1:120/544 node, many other things are not.
(My 1:120/546 node is reinstalled again on another system but not yet fully operational, & my 1:120/545 node was back up briefly but its
host systemm had a hardware failure.) And it's not helped not being
able to work on it very often, nor that it's not the only thing I need
to work on...

It was well known I couldnt access the ZCC traffic while at sea but that
I
could be netmailed via Dale at need and Bob could divert netmail to Dale
if it was something critical.

Hmmmm ... so you are saying that your netmail was monitored by a 3rd party?
Some of this goes back 17 years now so no real details recalled on any actual
netmails other than a few lively ones from Barry (Z3 and predated me in
Z6 as a substantial feed site there).

It was amazing we could reach you shipboard those days ... perhaps today it is different. Last Saturday I was Fidonetting on a train ... who
have believed that 17 years ago...

Yes, times have changed and today you'd not be amazed to see that.
Back then though, it really did confuse folks. ZC's took it in stride
but some others got actually miffed that I was using non-standard ways
when at sea to handle things, including ZONEDIFFs. I had no way to
automate them weekly unless I made no changes at sea and at sea I had
no 'file attach capability' so went low-tech and made segment changes
at need then had Janis send them up. Strange yes, but it meant it
didnt matter if I was at sea or not, changes were not delayed over it.
I recall distinctly being at sea when Z6 said yes, standardize the
phone if ION to the static (no deviation) 0 set. We had too many
close ties to Z3 to even think of not giving them something they could
use as a known, undeviated block. Perfect? No. Heck of a lot closer
than a hodge podge though.
Anyways, back to the topic of this place since that sort of thing isnt
and never will be a 'standard'. It's more of a one-off bit of our
Fido history one wouldn't expect but really happened.

He was working for the Navy on Submarines can't remember the type though.
It was a fairly quick turn round (7 - 14 days) for msgs despite the sub
not coming to the surface over often.
I assume here you had a reasonably easy time to access the outside world, but still remember communicating with Gordon Eubanks of Digital Research and DRI over issues on CBasic or CPM/MPM.

Vince,
Don't take me wrong, but I have a hard time believing that.

I had submarine people with me at Melita Island and it was always "Neither
confirm nor deny".

Grin, yup.
Oh yes! He'd have been doing similar to what I did then. I can't
tell you the details of how that works with subs but lets say his
response factor would have been slower than mine due to connectivity
issues.

what time can you spend on the FTSC?
So why are you even running as candidate?
what time can you spend on the FTSC?
As much as I can, like anyone else.
So why are you even running as candidate?
Because I was nominated and have always (since I joined back in the
mid 90's) been interested in the documention that's behind what we do
in Fidonet.
Allow me a good story.
