ac> Not a lot of action here lately.   What is the
ac> situation on the Linux version of Maximus these days?

I'm shocked you're not a developer with all your C skills :)

ac> Is anyone actively working on it?

Nope.

Last I heard they cured some curses & cursor probs and got MEX to work and that
was it. Everybody kind of dropped the ball after that since 2003.

ac> Is the latest source on SourceForge's CVS?

Sure is.

ac> Will it build?

Apparently.

Bob Jones was planning to clean up (or create) the Linux installer when time
permits.

ac> Is anyone using it?

Not me.

I think there're a couple of people.

Bob Jones (Top Hat 2 BBS) runs a test node.

But beyond the novelty it'd be a pretty boring setup. A basic Max & Squish
system more suitable as a mail hub.
