Hi,

So far I have sent the update request to about 150 DXSpider nodes.

5 say they will value it
14 will soon
3 are not clear
1 waiting for help.

Only 16 have been updated:

                DH1TW-2
EA2CW-3
EA2RCF-5
EA4FIT-2
EA4RCH-5
EA6VQ-2
EI7SDX
IK7IMO-6
IU1BOW-2
IW9EDP-6
JE3YEK
N9SEO-2
NL7S
ON3URE-2
SM7GVF-6
SR4DXC

I ask you to communicate with your neighboring nodes and help keep the network up to date. Everybody wins.
This attempt to remove archaic builds should only be the beginning. There are tools for our nodes to keep up.
I have created a small script that checks if a new build exists, if so it triggers the node to be updated and rebooted at 00:00 (or whenever defined in the crontab). In this way we avoid having to look at it continuously, and it is guaranteed that we are updated.

Thanks for your help.
