Subject: Is Zone 2 still alive?

Hello everyone,

I am returning to FidoNet after many years and am trying to find out
whether Zone 2, especially Region 31 in Austria, still has active nodes, points, coordinators, or routing.

I used to be active as point 2:316/747.747 and would like to build a
properly reachable FidoNet setup again. I have tried to contact the
listed people for Region 31, but have not received a response so far.

even 2:2 is not answering. ;-(

Does anyone here have current contacts, a current nodelist source, or
advice on how to obtain a point or node in the area?

Best regards,
Markus Wagner
