The way I understand it: firstly, if the groups are kept
private super-groups (which they should be), TgM users would
link up by invitation. It is possible that in the future, BBS
X could be hosting a gate bot, and so could BBS Y. But, a
user would only need to pick one for a specific echo. Then,
since all messages get converted into fido format, they would
have unique MSGIDs anyway.
