    Hey Ken,   
   Fidonet is still around. I just started running my board again a few months   
   back. I have both fidonet and metronet on my board right now. Yes, Policy4 is   
   still basically the same now as it was then. I'm posting this from The Stepping   
   Stone BBS, which also carries fidonet. If you are looking for something easy to   
   set up fast, synchronet is free now. I'm running Renegade and Synchronet both.   
    Scott....
