I realize that, but Mvan Le was accusing me of being an UN evangalist for 
Maximus for talking about using Sycnrhonet.  I was explaining how wrong that 
statement is, how loyal I have been to Maximus.  I  did not want to revive my 
BBS unless it was using Maximus and gave it a chance, for 4 years before 
CONSIDERING different software.  I have been using Maximus loyally since 1993 
and what Mvan said made me want him to understand my position.  I don't want to 
switch to Synchronet if I can get Maximus running with DOS doors in Linux or 
Solaris. I don't expect him or anyone to make the changes I'm asking for.  But 
don't call me an UN evangelist for Maximus for thinking about using another 
program that might do what I want after giving Maximus a fair chance.  I'm not 
a C programmer, and therefore cannot do the change myself.
