Hej Andy!

Not me as I've already taken care of myself ages ago, but I suspect most users 
of such software would require a method of exchange not to mention a compatable 
messaging format.  I suspect that "BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Toy-7" is taking care of 
compatibilty to fidonet given that qwk or bluewave are not accepatble messaging 
formats for distribution within the fidonet community.

> sftp or something. Would that be cool, Maurice?

That could work.  At present I am using scp between points, currently 2 
machines, and the fidonet node "Little Mikey's Brain" for offline messaging.  
This point is using binkd and standard ftn messaging formatting.
