I know I'm asking for it now... I'm quite likely to start writing a BBS program for the Amiga soon. What I would like is for those running BBS's on their Amiga to decribe to me (via email, please) what features they would want if they could have it. I don't plan to have multi-users at once or any on-line games, but I plan to make provisions at least for the single-user online games to be hooked in in later releases. Also send me any info about things that your BBS does that you DON'T like, and some idea of the most important download protocols (XMODEM, KERMIT, etc.). I generally know how BBSs work and how they are written and stuff, but I'm looking to make this a GOOD bbs program; thus, basic ideas like "mail and downloads would be nice" don't need to be sent. I also have a whilde (tm) idea for a user interface/menu kind of thing, but I won't go into that here. Any and all responses welcome; if more than a few people reply, I will post summaries. THANKS IN ADVANCE!!! -- Darren New
