Sounds good!  I was a beta tester of sorts for Telegard/2 (I'm mentioned in
the docs as "hausmaus"), Nexus/2 (a DOS-based BBS), SGMail by Brent
Shellenberg, and a few other projects that never got off the ground.

Sounds good!  I'm running Maximus/2 under ArcaOS (a third-party
maintained/developed version of OS/2).  I hope to have a POTS node one of
these days--I actually got a lot of local callers.

Why not?  Something to keep the hobby alive. :)

Later,
