INFO

When Fidonet introduced the concept of zones, they decided that each would be based on major geographical and continental boundaries. They also decided that each zone would be broken up into regions with each region being based on smaller geographical boundaries. Each region would have a coordinator to oversee the networks within that region. They decided to call this position the RC. This position is described by the following quote from the current Fidonet Policy document .

A region is a well-defined geographic area containing nodes which may or may not be combined into networks. A typical region will contain many nodes in networks, and a few independent nodes which are not a part of any network.

The Regional Coordinator maintains the list of independent nodes in the region and accepts nodelists from the Network Coordinators in the region. These are compiled to create a regional nodelist, which is then sent to the Zone Coordinator. A Regional Coordinator does not perform message-forwarding services for any nodes in the region.

Regional Coordinators are appointed by the Zone Coordinator.

The following charts show who held the RC positions in Zone 1 for each year. Some regions had more than one RC in the year.

There were no Zones or Regions before 1986.
