I don't have any support per se, but I do have a TON of MajorBBS software, docs and add-ons @ 2oFB. Its in the 'Paulie's 90GB BBS/DOS Software Collection' File Conference...
IIRC, there were many .PDFs and .DOC files in there that might be helpful..
Another thing - theres mbbsemu; a new project that can run MBBS add-ons w/o using MajorBBS software;
https://github.com/mbbsemu/MBBSEmu/releases
Just thought I'd post what I know. :P
