It's written in Go, so portability and support for cross-platform compilation is great for non-retro platforms. If you're still using Windows XP or running your BBS on DOS, Amiga or OS/2, you are stuck with older software. But Windows, Linux, *BSDs, OS X, Android, Plan9 should work.

NNCP is packaged in Debian.
