yep... allfix will respond if it finds anything that fits your request ;)
So no nodelist archives from the early days... Bob Seaborn used to keep an archive but sadly that's gone now as far as I know.
i don't remember if i replied to this or not... my system doesn't show a linked
reply so anyway... i think the below is where i was getting some of my old nodelists from... it doesn't seem to be responding, though...
The Fidonet :: Nodelist Search Form FIDO-HISTORY PROJECT (NLARCHIVE2)
http://ambrosia60.dd-dns.de/fidonet/nlarchive2.php
The Fidonet's :: NodeList/Pointlist(s)/Fidonews Archive
http://ambrosia60.dd-dns.de/fidonet/nodelist.php
IIRC, this was Ulrich Schroeter's site... looking in the nodelist, it looks like his 1 and 2 TLDs have changed from the above dd-dns.de to dtdns.net so the
following should work...
http://ambrosia60.dtdns.net/fidonet/fido-history-project.htm
use the tabs at the top of the page to find the nodelists...
i would not suggest that anyone start bulk grabbing them... i've seen too many sites shut down because of that... one recent one that comes to mind, not related to fidonet, is a landclass database used to generate shape files for creating scenery meshes for a simulator... someone went in and was scraping all
the shape files via a script and burned up all the bandwidth so the guy shut it
down and removed the download capabilities so no one can get the shape files any more... they're not needed if one can query the database directly but that's rather frought with peril these days...
