Ok agreed, on most points, but if those broadcasts are undesirable like i
find them, then i for one would like to see a rejection mechanisum to exclude
them. Something like reject a mnemonic that contains an asterisk, i remember
way back when Jonathan first started writing netrom into the kernel i sent
him a patch which excluded asterisks, or at least tryed to, that same patch
inclded upper and lower case letters, (contrary i beleve to RFC) which he did
include. This problem seems to be becoming more of a problem thesedays, or am
i getting older and too grumpy.?
