    AI> Hello Eric,   
      
    ER>>>> Looking into it, I learned MBSE is... Pretty well featured, so I   
    ER>>>> was curious to check it out..   
      
    AI> I'm sure you'd like the mailer / ticer / tosser. In all my BBS travels   
    AI> that stays with me.. :)   
      
   Hehe. Well, I'm currently running Synchronet with Htick and BinkD, which those   
   are pretty nice, honestly. I even have a setup I'm throwing together that's   
   mail-only, no BBS, that'll be BinkD+HPT+HTick+GoldED possibly JAMNNTPD, to   
   access and verify everything with.    
      
   The one thing I truely do like about Synchronet is the fact it's scripted with   
   JavaScript, which is real-world usable stuff and very easy to work with. I was   
   able, thankks to Synchronet, to learn JavaScript for the first time ever and   
   actually appreciate using it.    
      
   So, I'm curious what MBSE is actually capable of, and how customizable it is,   
   and scriptable, and if it's scripting language (if it has one), is worth using.   
   :)   
      
    ER>> If there's no complaints,   
      
    AI> No complainsts here.. in fact that could be very useful for anyone who   
    AI> trys to setup mbse in the future since I don't think centos is currently   
    AI> one of the distributions that the setup.sh is currently set to work with   
    AI> IIRC. In fact Lukas de Groen said he was planning to upgrade his system   
    AI> and I think he said his target was centos.   
      
   Heh, well, if I re-do the setup script, I'm likely to rip it all apart and   
   re-do a lot of it, to make it easier to maintain, and work with more systems   
   more easily., just depends. I haven't looked at it yet, but I usually end up   
   finding a lot of better ways to handle things other people had done.   
      
   But, yeah, my BBS systems all run on CentOS 7.1 these days, and I'm not likely   
   to change that. I hate Debian, I have Ubuntu, I hate .deb package format. If I   
   like MBSE enough to even mildly support it openly, I'll even make an RPM .spec   
   file for it that would allow binary distribution of it, and includable in the   
   source so people could download the source bundle, see the spec, rpm-build it,   
   install, and get up and running in no-time.   
      
   I would like to know a couple or a few publically accessible MBSE systems out   
   there, so I could check them out, too..    
      
   I want to see, first hand, what it's capable of as a user.
