   The last I hear on it by Thursday was it should be use of noncommercial and   
   binkp with 1 to 4 akas in use and run by lan + I self maybe could use on bbbs   
   for my own use, but all in my names but with different bbs name.   
   So it is getting the sheeppes payment at all as the really bbs system is now   
   just working by mbsebbs on linux pc's.   
   BBBS is then to run as secund bbs by network with binkp and perhaps tcpip.   
   I have not yet heard back from Kim about it.   
      
    Take care,   
    Gert
