Hello, August!

But you as a developer can maintain a bunch of apps, not just the fidonet one
under this lincese. It would probably scare away folks who is going to do
their first home project <g>
AA>>> ..I wouldn't be surprised if a sync solution for fidonet emerged
AA>>> out of the resourceful folks in R50 or its neighbors.
AA> Maybe have a series of YouTube videos on the "fears fun and foibles of
AA> fidonet" (tm) ?
I was thinking of making some UT videos about Fidonet and stuff and I can do
it in a few languages (show off) but the thing is.. it isn't popular at all,
for example check out the "Mystic Guy" on UT posting his Mystic BBS tutorials
and has got only 551 subscribers.
