we're still working on getting things updated and in operation with the
replacement of one of the star systems and the addition of two others... some
things are going a little slower than expected and/or desired but such is
life...
the current method of requesting backbone cartage of your echo is as follows
(taken from the last BOFAQ distributed)...
=====>8 snip 8<=====
Q11 =======================================================================
How does one go about getting an echo added to Backbone distribution?
The Backbone generally adds an echo to the Backbone when the following
requirements are met:
1) The moderator lists the echo in the EchoList. Refer to the
EchoList operator for information about how to do this, and then
2) The moderator requests that the echo be distributed by the
Backbone. The request should be sent from one of the moderator
addresses listed in the EchoList, via one of the following methods,
preferably "A".
A) Echomail: To "Backbone", in the Z1_BACKBONE echo
B) Netmail: To "Backbone", at any Backbone ZHub's address
C) Netmail: To "NAB Robot" at it's nodelisted address,
presently 1:1/20.
The body of the request should consist of a current copy of the
EchoList listing for the echo. This could be taken from a recent
message from the EchoList (netmail, email or echomail) or be an
excerpt from the current EchoList itself.
The moderator is also to arrange a connection from his/her system
to one of the ZHubs to transport the echo to the backbone.
The echo is then listed in BACKSTAT.NA and BACKBONE.NA as being
available.
A welcome message is sent in the echo to help establish links. At
this time any private links to the echo should be switched to the
Backbone.

*please note* that step 2C above is no longer valid... the best and easiest
method is step 2A...
you can look back a few messages to sean dennis' posts for his BSD cartage
request for a real life example...
we thank you for your understanding...
