       Hello Dirk,<br>
    <br>
     I am just now trying to catch up on the emails on the list,
    catching Covid for sure knocked me down for a few.   That said, if I
    can help with replication, or distribution of anything that will
    help the cluster network just let me know. My server cluster is all
    on 10GE links, and sets on multiple 10GE pathways to the network.  I
    could probably serve the lists to all the clusters every minute 24/7
    and laugh while I did it.   The WB3FFV-2 node is a VM on my cluster,
    and it would be a piece of cake to build a VM we could use to
    distribute anything you desire..<br>

        requests that large numbers of people to do not connect to the

        that we do as we are and have a few sites that obtain, process
        and then distribute the result to our community. <br>
        <br>
        One of the things I need to sort out are 2-4 backup sites that
        can that program and then redistribute it (independently) from
        GB7DJK, via a web download site. I am getting to an age where I
        could, after all, drop dead tomorrow or  be run over by a bus. <br>
        <br>
        I also have to devise a system to merge badip.local files into
        one or more copies of badip.global, so that that too can be
        managed by the community rather than just me. I feel an 'upload'

                    successfully, it will overwrite<br>
                       any file with that name in /spider/local_data.
