   I mentioned WWIV but might have been late to the game.  WWIV has had lots of   
   work done to it over the past year or two.  Both the BBS itself and the   
   WWIVnet.     
      
   For those that might not know, WWIVnet is alive and well and uses BinkP to   
   transfer packets (as of when I became the NC 1@1 for WWIVnet).
