Subj: Chatnode Issue

Hi!
The chat node there seems to be stuck, broken- we have been struggling to track down an issue today
with the network showing ICDCHT connected at various different points along with a corrupted callsign
phantom connection which isn't actually there... (stale) unfortunately your node is showing that 
connection as being alive, which is false. So could you give your chat software a kick and see if 
it links up without introducing the corrupted callsign.
It looks like this:

GLG7I at ICDCHT    G7ICD, Jim Runcorn UK [General] Idle for 84639 seconds <------- THIS ONE IS STALE

If the local chatusers.txt / STUsers.txt is faulty, might want to nuke that too.
I am not sure exactly how widespread this issue is now, but it isn't isolated to just yours so
its not your fault or anything like that.
BPQ John noted the issue this morning when users across several nodes could not see each other
although they were connected. The stale entry prevents the nodes from linking, and since ICD is
kinda a big hub, its broken the net quite extensivly.
Hope this issue gets resolved, please fwd this to anyone on the net who might need a heads up.
