just bitter because the last "alter-net" I participated in (the C-64
Q-Link and BBS revival) never really got very strong. Still, the DEC
community might be able to support a small network. You never know.
I would not be bitter. Q-Link is still going, though it has slumped
post Nov 5th. This is understandable, as I have not had much time to
devote to it, and the main goal was to be up and operational for the
20th Anniversary. Truly, it needs more work to be a self supporting
community.
Still, people who are early adopters of stuff like Q-Link need to take a
long view of participation. I suspect it will be 6 months before Q-Link
starts to support itself with a steady stream of people.
