I was a beta tester of sorts for Telegard/2 (I'm mentioned in       the docs as "hausmaus"), Nexus/2 (a DOS-based BBS), SGMail by Brent       Shellenberg, and a few other projects that never got off the ground.               PLJ> Both of my bbs system have 20 available nodes Cnet has one dialup node.              Sounds good! I'm running Maximus/2 under ArcaOS (a third-party       maintained/developed version of OS/2). I hope to have a POTS node one of       these days--I actually got a lot of local callers.               PLJ> Now I obtain some of the basic source code for Ribbs, I am        PLJ> thinking about writting a new bbs program.              Why not?
