Ham radio is essentially irrelevent to modern emergency and disaster
communications, as you very well know. We hams have little or nothing
to offer anymore; our services have been eclipsed by modern technology
in the hands of professionals.
ampr.org and the amprnet are primarily for research, development, and
recreation. It should not be depended upon for production or safety use.

Hey, Brian - are you still the amateur radio IP address coordinator?
You have a point when you say Ham radio is essentially irrelevent to
modern emergency and disaster communications - but yet it does have SOME
relevance that shouldn't be totally ruled out. And the fact that we
COULD hook into the Internet, could bring amateur emergency
communications into the 21st century - as YOU very well know.
Last time I remember(back in '95, I think it was) you were being very
stingy with handing out IP addresses to amateurs. I had to really fight
to get a set of 8-bit subnet addresses. It sounded like you were
working to refarm the addresses for commercial purposes. That kind of
sounds like a conflict of interest to me. This isn't why you are so
against the expansion of amateur use of the Internet - is it?
Maybe I'm being too critical of you. You may have been the one to get
us IP addresses in the first place? Let the genie out the bottle, eh?
Anyway, I think you 'ought to be a little bit more open to expanding
amateur use of the Internet. It really is the future, you know. If we
can't expand in the area of digial
