To   : All

Worked a bit on IcyBoard the last few days, set up a little test BBS.
IcyBoard is a possible successor to PCBoard. 
Aim is to be fully compatible and run on linux/mac/windows - 
see readme for features/differences: 
   https://github.com/mkrueger/icy_board


PPE files work pretty well - however would need feedback - still possible to run into missing functions.

PPL compiler/decompiler included - is even backwards compatible to all pcboard versions and creates smaller binaries.

Other tools are included as well - should be possible to import 
existing pcboard installations more or less - they're still dos 
so manual editing is required. IcyBoard is aimed to run on 
modern OSes and not DOS.
