 AT> So, is anyone actually using Bluewave QWK reader these days? I see
 AT> how it can come in handy, with all these Fidonet echos.

I'm still using it, both as a BW reader and as a QWK reader... yes,
there still are some BW and BW-compatible doors in operation, too.  :)

 AT> Are there any big issues with it at the moment? I'm willing to use it,
 AT> probably for Fidonet only. Where can I get the current version?

It works fine, as long as you get either the repfix for it or the y2k
patch, both available... Mark Lewis has them available on his bbs... 
The current version is still the 2.30 set of versions, and 2.2O also
still works fine.  I use it for Fidonet and also for the smaller similar
nets that I post in...

 AT> Does anyone happen to know how well it works with Mystic BBSs?

As a reader for QWK packets, it should work just fine... just like it
does for Wildcat BBSes and for Synchronet ones...  No Bluewave doors
available for any of them.... but they generate QWK packets and process
the rep reply packets...
