[comp.sources.wanted] Unix based bulletin board services

keith@ca.excelan.com (Keith Brown) (11/07/90)

Im on the hunt for some conferencing software running under UNIX, preferably
of the Sun variety. The kind of thing I'm looking for would probably be
implemented as a replacement shell that presents the user, upon logging in,
with a set of conferences that [s]he could join. Within each conference
would be a set of ongoing conversational threads etc.. etc... all standard
type conferencing stuff.

I'd be interested in recomendations on public domain source code type
offerings and I'd even be prepared to part with hard cash for good
commercial binary products (for Sun's). I do know of one such system in
existence which I doubt is for sale..... it's the Computer Information
Exchange (CIX) bulletin board in the UK.

Thanks in advance,
Keith
