    ml>> don't get confused by the chicken and the egg syndrome... binkd

    Oli>> Before BinkD and FTS-5005 there was the original BinkleyTerm   
    Oli>> mailer that defined BSO in 1990.   
      
    ml> yes... this is true...   
      
    Oli>> The FTSC documented the original BSO de facto standard.   
      
    ml> document number, please... i'm unable to find any such document aside from   
    ml> FSP-1034/FRL-1034 which was the first attempt at documenting BSO back in   
   like   
    ml> 2005... it wasn't picked up and anything done with it until 2014...   
      
   The document number is in the paragraph you've quoted   
      
   http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-5005.003

    >> distributed with binkd.   
      
    ml> what standard? please provide the document number...   
      
    ml> also remember that binkleyterm is POTS while binkd is internet and the   
   only thing   
    ml> common between them is the BSO...   
      
   POTS or TCP/IP, the only thing that matters is that BinkleTerm is the   
   reference implementation for 4D and 5D BSO.
