My contribution to the econet island will be a Master with GoMMC,
Replay, and co-processor.  It' currently set to station 40, but it's
no big deal to change it.  If I can find the time to check over and
backup one up, I could bring a filestore along too, if nobody else has
one already in a state to show off..

The viewdata host would work best with stations starting at 1, if you
want *WHO# to work anyway...  so I'd provisionally people keep away
from 1-10, plus 192.168.0.1-10..

Having said that, I think Dave's intention is to keep the econet
island contained to itself, rather than let it take over the whole
show, so I'd probably not interfere with whatever addressing you want
to do..

And eeks .. only a month to go!  (Must make another effort to get the
A5000 working again on econet otherwise it'll all go pear shaped
...anybody got a spare one?)
