Oh, and some of us on DDIAL were discussing the creation of a new open
source BBS server inspired by mystic but utilizing modern languages for
the door model, wysiwyg gopher creator, and standard gopher client, and

put some thought into doing the PM work but, sort of knee deep on a
hardware project of my own.
