    A large number of you are still confused as to who is doing what to     
             Iniquity so i have decided to include this again.              
                                                                            
                Iniquity was first started by Michael Friker.               
 It was then sold to Michael Pike, after Friker no longer had the time and  
 energy that was needed to continue the project.  With the comming of Pike  
 we all hoped that iniquity would once again develop into the software it   
                             was in the past.                               
  Things did not go as planned and as we had hoped. Pike was lacking one    
   key that he would need to develop iniquity, he could not code pascal.    
After we releazed this things turned ugly after our devotion and commitment 
    had been played apon my Pike, and eventually the source code itself     
   was leaked to the public.  Comatose suggested to iniquity's die hard     
 supporters that the development should now be run by the iniquity sysops   
   themselves and form a type of group or team of system operators that     
  wish to continue the development and yet respect its original founders    
                   work and credits where they are due.                     
                                                                            

              Its finally that time again, and ist has release yet
            another update of the Iniquity BBS Software.
            In this release we have added a few features that users
            will like such as a time bank and an ansi abort. We also
            have consitrated on making the system more usable for
            sysops by adding more sysop alt commands, system variables,
            and a few mci codes. The documentation has also been updated
            for this release and should contain all new settings and
            features since it was last reviewed. Keeping iniquity well
            rounded both from the user and from the sysops point of
            view is what we are aiming to do.
