    Not much, to be honest. It's the same thing, different year. :D

    I started off running Ribbs in the late 80's on The Trs-80 Color Computer three, switched to Remote access and I tried running Opus, Wildcat, Mystic, Elebbs, Renagade and several other bbs packages. I even got a chance to run several of the Fidonet Mailers like Binkley and Frontdoor. Now I am running Synchronet and Cnet BBS.

    Both of my bbs system have 20 available nodes Cnet has one dialup node.

    Now I obtain some of the basic source code for Ribbs, I am thinking about writting a new bbs program.

    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. :)
