As a new BMUG member, is it possible to access the BMUG BBS via 
Internet?

Thanks.

Well, since someone asked publicly, here's the scoop for anyone who's
interested:

The BMUG BBS is currently an eight-line TBBS implementation running on
a 33mH 386 box (we're planning to go up to 16 lines soon).  Although in
some future incarnation we may move the whole thing over to Unix and
enable ftp access, etc., this is not currently the case.  There are ways
around long-distance diallup costs (like Starlink or Connect USA), though.

The current status of the BBS can be ascertained from the perennial BBS
article in the BMUG Newsletter.  With over 9000 logons per month, we're
always looking for ways to make it work better and provide more services
for our members.

If anyone has questions about the BBS (or about BMUG, for that matter),
please send email to this address.
