Hi everyone,

I'd like to announce that Michael Dillon is a new MBSE Development Team
member.

I've know Mike for 25 years now and he is a really good C programmer.
Andrew and I discussed this and Mike is now on-board.  He does not have
a BBS running right now but has access to this echo via my BBS.

In the past 24 hours, he's already fixed several issues and discovered a
pretty nasty flaw in the way the JAM message base is handled in MBSE.
He's working on these issues and more.

I successfully compiled the latest DOSemu source from Git and applied
the "slow display" patch as described in the documentation.  I am
working on slowly updating the HTML documentation.  Once that is done, I
will generate a nice indexed PDF and work on creating man pages for all
of MBSE's daemons and other programs.

There's other stuff going on in the background but it's all adding up.

I am working on setting up MBSE myself but due to other (good) things
that are happening in my life, I've had to put it off for a while.

Andrew discovered that the code to display .ASC files is not there!  So
we're fixing that.

Slowly but surely we're making MBSE better piece by piece.
