[App_rpt-users] new SVN version _Removal of IRLP

[Doug Hutchison]

For the life of me I cannot understand this action.

Surely, Dave C is not saying bin the thing, he is pointing out the RF to 
RF requirement of IRLP and the difficulties of maintaining the IRLP 
system. Politics aside, the IRLP rules are clear and should be respected.

This is something which I believe EchoIRLP has done since its inception 
and which, to an extent the IRLP system designer, has recognised in the 
modification of the troubleshoot script.

Many have invested a lot of time setting up AllStar, educating users etc 
so why quit without at least trying to come up with an amicable solution 
to the updating or whatever other problem exists. The fact that AllStar 
nodes can provide a link into IRLP is a means of promoting the use of 
both systems, the traffic on which is not exactly heavy.

The removal of chan_irlp is probably going to cause node owners a lot of 
hassle.

Now, is it not possible for those responsible to put their heads 
together and come up with a solution similar to TBD, TheBridge rather 
than just dump the facility?

Put it back and negotiate or design an acceptable solution as I think 
Tony, VK3JED is advocating.
