   i am happy to know you got inspirated from irex, irex is cool imho, but with   
   lost source there is no future of it anymore, only can hope the money   
   collection will make author begin code irex ng or simply pay back in other   
   ways, on the other hands if he give them to grandchilds that runs fidonet   
   nodes its still cool :)
