The chances of a printer turning up in Perth, WA are zip. If I had to pay money for one "desert island" DEC printer. What would it be?

There are definitely people running the bridge in the US, but if they want to peer is another story.

For HECnet I'm just running a plain old fashioned Johnny-bridge. :)
I take it HECnet peers are lacking in the U.S.?
I guess I should put my Python router up permanently...

Awesome. Are you Johnny-bridging? Or doing something like DECnet

We can go off-list to negotiate the link particulars...

I can provide tunnel endpoints. Real Cisco hardware here, real static
IP addresses, good bandwidth.

If you're doing virtual cisco, do you speak IPv6? If you do I can you a
semi-stable link. My IP is dynamic but my scripts should restore
connectivity within 65 seconds. The longest wait would be for Brian H.'s
scripts.

Look for packets from the neighbor routers you re expecting to see. And
look at the hello packets from both sides and match them against what the
DECnet routing spec says should happen.
If necessary, post a few lines from the result and we can look it over.
