I already said "just do it!" Now another: "Talk is cheap."
Get on with it!
Produce a specimen list of software available for nodes and points, please.
The list should include mailers or BBS or both which can use either IP or FTS
protocols or both on one phone line. Also it should include nodelist compilers,
echomail processors, mail readers and point software. At least one complete
system should be freeware.
If you can get general agreement on the list of things required, it should
not be too hard to develop these into outline specifications, then program
specifications, then black boxes or beans, then programs.
