Subj : Net Development To : Bill Birrell From : Jan Vermeulen Date : Sat Jan 04 2003 04:05 pm Quoting Bill Birrell on Fri 3 Jan 2003 23:23 to Scott Little: bb> Produce a specimen list of software available for nodes and bb> points, please. The list should include mailers or BBS or both bb> which can use either IP or FTS protocols or both on one phone line. bb> Also it should include nodelist compilers, echomail processors, bb> mail readers and point software. At least one complete system bb> should be freeware. bb> If you can get general agreement on the list of things bb> required, it should not be too hard to develop these into outline bb> specifications, then program specifications, then black boxes or bb> beans, then programs. I was going to write a paper on that, but now you did all the work for me ;) Keep up the good work, Bill. -=<[ JV ]>=- * Origin: The Poor Man's Workstation -- Wormerveer NL (2:280/100) .
