This seems to be the one thing I've never seen here since I got back.. a fidonet.na

Do we do infopacks and the NA files? the ones with all the proper descriptions of each echo/fileecho?

The last one I have in my file echos is from May 15, 2019. So I'd assume whoever was doing it either gave up on it, or their system is on autopilot and broke.

Someone used to, but I think the only time a new .NA was released if a new echo was added or removed.

Either way, if you're just looking for an up to date listing with all the descriptions, I've made the copy I have available at:

The ones out there are not exactly accurate and many echoes dead and gone.

Looks like he's using Mystic, and is posting to the Z1C echo, so one can assume (as I did) he is having Mystic auto-add them upon import. So hopefully he just needs a list of actual descriptions to match up with those echotags.

What I sent should be enough to cover most english based, mostly dead to somewhat active echos, but he'll definitely have to dig deeper if he wants to head over to non-english speaking echos, or the ones that have been dead for years already. :)
