[arm-allstar] IRLP Sysops

[Doug Crompton]

Yes, I agree. We do NOT need to discuss the politics of IRLP gateways. They
exist, they work, they serve a purpose, and we will supply the SW to make
them work. Whether you use them is up to you. Personally I see no use for
IRLP. I think they should dump their $100+ investment in a board and come
to Allstar but everyone has a differing opinion. It is sometimes hard to
teach an old dog new tricks!
