As per the title, on the off chance that anyone has one and is looking to part with it.

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi Andrew!

Never seen a B017 during the last ~15 years. Only one AVM ISDN Controller B1-MCA (@61C7.ADF) which is now running under OS2 in an PS/2 Model 9585-0XA.

-Mike

Ugh! 
I have one, but...
...due to the lack of any MCAs I did some modifikations on it.
I don't know if it still works as expected.

BTW and OT:
Hi fellows, what do you think about using a different board/group/BB?
IMHO this google groups are realy uncomfortable.

This is not a "Google group," it's a Usenet newsgroup. That means it's a 
fully distributed bulletin board, and Google Groups is just one way to 
access it.

For example, I use Thunderbird as my client and eternal-september.org as 
my NNTP server; there are lots of other clients, including GNUS in 
emacs, and lots of other NNTP servers carrying the various groups.

The worst thing to do to a community is to migrate it to a "web forum" 
or "web chat" without an email or news gateway, because then only people 
who like visiting that type of forum in a web browser would participate. 
Usenet clients generally provide a far superior experience, and Usenet's 
distributed nature ensures that what people say actually gets archived 
properly.

Yes I knew this, but I have not found a working newsserver.

So, thanks for this info.
As you can see now I post through this server.

eternal-september.org seems very stable to me, and I have used it for
years.

  https://www.eternal-september.org

(I have no personal interest and no affiliation, other than a normal
free account.)

matter how deeply held, with open disrespect and the same unrelented
enthusiasm of a toddler who has just learned the word "poo".

I've been very happy with news.individual.net for many years (see
https://news.individual.net/).  It's offered by the Free University of
Berlin as a paid service at EUR 10 per year.
