Within the last two months,
two different versions of MINIBBS were posted to this net.
One was labelled 2511 and the other 2312.
Is the later one (2312) the newer one?  If so, why does it have
a lower number.

These numbers are the date (release date I guess), that is 25-Nov and 23-Dec.
As I recall the 2312 is the newer one, though you have to be careful as the
year is not indicated in the number, so you realy have to look at the files 
(like the readme) to be sure.

Who uses MiniBBS BBS-system ?
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
I have a little problem that YOU can help me with !!!

I am the one that makes the MiniBBS Public Domain BBS-system,
and during the last year many ST-freaks have asked for the
program, and many uses it to run their own BBS'es.

The problem, however, is:  I don't have a list of them !!!!
                           """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
So could everybody that either uses the MiniBBS program to
run a BBS, or knows about a BBS running MiniBBS software
please send me a letter with:

 BBS-name, SysOp name, full adress, phone (both data and voice)

If I get all this information I can compile a user list and
send out new versions of MiniBBS and other information !!!!
