    From Rob Swindell@1:103/705 to GitLab note in main/sbbs on Sun Aug 2 20:48:33 2026
    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/a96b6c72c0c31f1aff4080d7fd8ffc9f207273c1#note_9904

    A QWKnet hub doesn't normally have a "DNS subtree", or at least one that include "direct child BBSes". Can you elaborate on this?

    DOVE-Net hierarchy today is pretty flat - most nodes feed directly from VERT. How do you propose to test this nested hierachy feature?

    How are we achieving the integrity protection (over say, FTP)?

    Is TelnetS specifically or traditional Telnet/TCP?

    What about uses for other inter-BBS protocols: BinkP, active-user/systat or MSP?

    DOVE-Net hierarchy today is pretty flat - most nodes feed directly from VERT, and must have a qwkid.synchro.net domain name.
