   Howdy again, dear friends of classic hardware!   
      
   Since 2019 marks the 10th anniversary of Contiki BBS (yes, indeed), it would   
   be a shame not to come up with a new release, right? So I'm happy to let you   
   know that coding is being done at the moment for the upcoming Contiki BBS   
   0.3.1 release. One new feature that is already committed in the code repos   
   at Sourceforge and GitLab is *tadaa* [b]online user registration[/b]! No   
   longer will you have to create users beforehand (sort of spoils the fun,   
   doesn't it). Also, the very first user you create (user id# 1) will get full   
   ACL (ACL=255) so it is automatically the sysop user, no matter what name you   
   pick as a username.  New users with id# > 1 will get a default ACL of 10.   
   Further work will eventually add an edit function to the user editor (so you   
   can level up all your new buddies logging in).   
      
   As I said, the basic changes are already in the master branch and if you   
   want to try them out and if you think you are up to the task of compiling   
   Contiki BBS on your own, just pull the latest sources and off you go. The   
   registration feature does not change the data structures, so you can just   
   replace the old 0.3.0 Contiki BBS server binary with the new one. Please   
   note that the changes made to the setup program (e.g. user editor) are not   
   yet commited upstream (to the public repos)!   
      
   An official 0.3.1 release including a working .D64 image and .ZIP file (for   
   SD2IEC installations) is planned for the end of this month, but delays may   
   happen.   
      
   P.S.: plans for a future 0.3.2 release are also beginning to shape up, with   
   some sort of private messaging mechanism in the back of my mind. But first   
   I'll get this one finished.   
      
       Greetings, Niels Haedecke
