I'm using VirtualBox 6.1.16-140961 and FreeDOS 1.2 on Windows 10 in this effort, which has just started this morning. If that turns out, I hope to use NetFoss RC 1.24 to get UUCP-over-TCP/IP working. I don't know what it is about Waffle but it just felt so comfortable, with just the right amount of quirkiness to make operating a site feel like being part of a secret club. Good times! I wish the source code could still be bought... — Peter.
