   Well, until recently it was pretty well neglected - but I got myself a new    
   A1200 keyboard (Amigakit rules)   
   and no longer have to search for words without an R in them lol. Just a few    
   days ago I tidied things up a fair bit   
   by cron'ing a daily backup of the BBS, time sync with NTP server - plus a    
   few bits and pieces   
   on the BBS itself. I hope to do more, perhaps even getting a larger drive    
   and filling the BBS with   
   files, like the oldschool /X boards.   
      
   Quite a while ago I did put together my BBS (stripped down, of course,    
   user.data etc) into a 4mb zip file -   
   almost-ready to run in WinUAE. I can't for the life of me find the second    
   author of /X (Joseph Hodge)   
   and a fair few people are asking for the software. Textfiles has a few    
   copies, but nothing you can easily   
   setup - so I'm thinking of putting my files on our main /X webpage. I dunno,    
   it's all illegal. I wish Joseph would   
   surface for five minutes for a chat.
