Hi everyone,
As many of you may (or may not know), I have my own line of BBS doors called Cheepware that I've been working on since 1998. Nothing fancy but people
seem to like them. I recently ported them from DOS-only to DOS, OS/2,
Win32, 64-bit Linux, and 64-bit FreeBSD (my BBS runs under FreeBSD). I am needing people to "kick the tires" on all of these builds except FreeBSD.
All of my doors and doorkit code will soon be released under the 3-clause
BSD license, which is compatible with the GPL according to the FSF, for your experimentation. The dooorkit I am using is a modified version of Manndoor, written by Rick Parrish originally, with Maarten Berker's ELECOM code underlying that.
My FreeBSD doors work fine but I want to make sure there's no "oddities" in
the other versions.
The documentation is a bit sparse right now but I am working on that also.
I am working on a text version first then will create a PDF version.
If you're interested, check out the CHWARE echo which is the main support
echo in Fidonet or MIN_BBS in my network, Micronet.
I write the doors for myself but I have always made them available for
others for their enjoyment. I have more doors planned but right now I need
to get the basics covered.
