[comp.sys.cbm] Some questions...

Has anyone out there ported Minix to the Commodore 128 native mode using 
either Power-C or Super-C, or to CP/M 3.0 mode?  I already own the book with
the source code but don't want to "re-invent the wheel".

Also, I have recently become very interested in writing some utilities for the
Commodore 128 and 64 to connect to UNIX systems for the purposes of sending and
receiving mail.  I am not sure if setting up News for the commodore would be
real practical since most commodore owners are very limited on disk space.  Is
anyone else out there interested in such a project?  If so, I have set up a
mailing list here on my system to discuss such a project and possibly get it
started.  The addresses for this list are:

		comix@fantasci.UUCP          <- for submissions
		comix-request@fantasci.UUCP  <- for administrivia

If you need a full path, you can use:

		princeton!telesci!fantasci!comix
		princeton!telesci!fantasci!comix-request

I think that with all the Commodore's out there, that there would be alot of
interest in such a project.  I have heard that there is already a Commodore
port of fidonet, is this true?

Anyway I hope to be hearing your comments...
