Hi Maintainers and Developers,
I am interested in the DECnet TODO list.
I just need a quick response whether they are worth doing or not
for the amount of development happening in this subsystem is extremely
low and I can't help but question whether I should indulge in any of
the listed works or not.

Thanks,

Suraj Upadhyay.

It's understandable that it has grown obsolete now.

Thanks for your response.
