[HECnet] Public access?

[Jarratt RMA]

By the way, the hecnet.eu page says the bridge has to run on Unix. I have ported it to Windows as well. I can't remember if I ever sent the code to Johnny though. Johnny, do you want the code? I can't remember what I did to it, but I did have to change it around a bit.

I'll mirror whatever we come up with on http://hecnet.eu as a static page, can't see given our pace of change that it's going to get out of date quickly!

Hecnet.eu has been a bit I unreliable lately as I've moved over to the mikrotik router but it should be fairly stable now and my interest in dec kit is waxing again.
