There was several versions of Binkd available under the name AmiBinkd but they 
were all terrible in terms of memory leakage which eventually brought the 
entire system down. I tried them all and the last one, v9.04 I believe, did not 
perform any better.  The source for this version was never published and I 
believe the person behind it tried to charge money for it for a while, hence it 
was removed from Aminet.
