   While there are well-known programs such as Synchronet and Mystic, I'd also   
   like to mention a few other options for Linux users to choose from:   
      
   There's Magicka BBS, which is a very new software project that is actively   
   developed by Andrew Pamment. It already has support for Fidonet / Echomail   
   and makes use of Linux tools such as sqlite and Mosquitto. It supports   
   scripting via Lua. It's WIP but absolutely worth checking out.   
   (www.magickabbs.com)    
      
   Then there's MBSE which has been around about as long as Mystic (since 1997 I   
   guess). That is the BBS software I use on debian Linux at the   
   moment. (www.sourceforge.net/projects/mbsebbs)   
      
   Finally, you may also have a look at bbbs, probably the last commercial BBS    
   software for Linux still available today. License fees can be found on the    
   website. (www.bbbs.net)   
      
   Id' also like to add that all of the above BBS systems are also available /   
   compilable on ARM based Linux distros such as Raspbian Linux.
