I would like to know what is the latest version of BBS program
BB/ST by Steven Grimm, QMI. I have called the Finnish ST-club's
BBS and they are using version 1.12 of BB/ST. I think the this
BBS software has nice features like message tree, user polls,
vidtex graphics, etc. But there is no networking possibility
and it would be nice to have multi-line system. Also a emacs
style message editor would be nice to have in a BBS, does anyone
know of any BBS system which has it.

The latest version of BB/ST is version 1.20, which "supposedly" fixes some bugs in the program. I bought BB/ST and liked it but heard from MANY people who used it more than myself that it would trash the files it used and would generally make a mess of itself every-so-often. It's not a reliable program andd QMI keeps saying that they're working on it but they've been saying that for two years (same problem they have with ST-Talk Pro 2.0C, which still has too many bugs to be useable yet they say that ST-Talk Pro 2.0D will be out "aaaannnnyyyyy ddddaaaayyyyy nnnnooooowwwww".
