I remember like 20 years ago seeing Cott Lang post about updating
Renegade somewhere… but haven’t heard their names in forever.

I used their software an awful lot, and just was thinking about them.

A big thanks to both of them if they happen to read this.

great question!  I recently went through the process of trying to
figure out the various developers who have worked on Renegade after
Lang.  tl;dr its pretty messy

If you're referring to Tim Stryker, the author of the MajorBBS -
sadly, [he passed away quite a while
ago](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Stryker).

I think they mean Tim Strike, the author of Telegard.

Ahh. Didn't realize there were two Tims who wrote BBS software with
such similar last names.

Cott is still around occasionally ... Haven't seen Tim Strike since
BITD.

Could you please elaborate on your acronym? I too have just started a
trip down memory lane to find the authors of bulletin board software I
once appreciated and attempted to run
