   WV>  NA> and D'Bridge was published at a time before this was proposed. I   
   WV>  NA> believe Greg Dawson designed the original specification.   
   WV>    
   WV> I have this one saved:   
   WV>    
   WV>                               AreaFix v1.30 User Guide   
   WV>                           originally by Jeffrey J. Nonken   
   WV>    
   WV> That's used by Bjorn. He called it the original AreaFix. It works about the   
   WV> same as d'Bridge with options (like -R -L and -Q) on the command line after   
   WV> the password.   
      
   I don't have specific version info but Greg Dawson was credited for Areafix in   
   D'Bridge, circa 1989, and the -R -L and -Q was also used in TBBS/Flame; at one   
   time used by many major Hubs in Zone 1 in the 90's.    
      
   WV>  NA> There are quite a few legacy tossers that do not conform to this   
   WV>  NA> proposal.   
   WV>    
   WV> I know BBBS is a bit different, but I have no link with a BBBS system, so I   
   WV> don't know the details. But besides those above I don't know any that don't   
   WV> conform more or less to the method described in the fsc proposal.   
      
   See above,
