Thats your opinion. They don't cater to the shell happy, v32bis or
nothing crowd. They too told me that 14.4 was coming, missed the
deadline due to technical problems, and refused to charge me until
this year! ( I joined in October of 92 )

Mondo publicizes Vox because it espouses and encourages alternative
areas of thought. Hackers. lawyers, journalists and anyone else who
can dial or telnet in feeds the lively forums.

Again, did you ask them about the overcharge? I don't think that these
guys are going out of their way to "weasel" you out of thirty dollars.
What question did you ask? You sound awfully vague to launch such
a vivid flame against the Vox folks..

And yes, they are moving to new offices, yes they are getting fractional
T1, yes they are getting v32bis modems and more dialup lines too.

.. these opinions are mine.. only mine..

Most users who are interested in email or news couldn't care less
whether there is a direct connect to internet or not.  I suppose we
would need an alt.bbs.internet.ftp and an alt.bbs.internet.news to
really split the distinctions properly.

UUNET probably has access to the most newsgroups of anybody.  The following
files are available via anonymous FTP from ftp.uu.net:

	/uunet-info/active.Z - a news transport configuration file
	/uunet-info/newsgroups.Z - 1 line newsgroup descriptions

Note that you will need to uncompress these files.

You will need many triews while the BBS is 90% of its time full, sorry we are working
on a solution.

The fact that the BBS is so slow is that the network between the BBS and you is
quite slow and the BBS uses hotkeys so all you type appears on your screen after
twice that distance.

Can be, the TRADEWARS menu itself was not made on a >2 colour screen and it
turned out that on a multi colour screen the characters are the same as the
background. This will be fixed :-)

No I'm not directly connect to the TCP/IP Internet, but 
I have quick mail and news TO/FROM the Internet! 

And it's almost impossible except for the other sites I trade UUCP
conenctions with in the 404/706 area someone has to provide a small,
but easy way to get mail and news.  I've already received a lot of
newusers looking for just that.  That's why I posted here.

I agree, why shouldn't people use their own language - BUT - this is an 
english language group. Germany has a de.etc.etc newsgroup hierarchy as have 
most languages by now I would have thought. Posting to such a wide spread 
group as this should be done in an international language, which English 
happens to be.

[ Narrow-minded DOS drivel deleted. ]

While I think that there is an excellent concept in standardizing BBS
software so that it can talk to eachother, the document you sent out is
worthless to a large number of people.  There are more people on Usenet
than on FideNet, so the mail addresses are useless.  Why don't people
just use the standards that are already there.

	Mail:		RFC822 with MIME extensions for multi-media
	News:		RFC1032 with use of the "X-*" header extensions
	Config file:	Is it really that important?
	Dates:		Try the internaltional standards: DAY MON YEAR
	Phone numbers:	Same thing: ISO standard: +1 XXX XXX XXXX

Seems to me that this is creating yet another set of "standards" for use
by a group of people who are destined to exclude others.  I honestly
can't use anything that is in the document because it flies in the face
of the standards that I use daily (ie, Internet standards and
International standards)  Seems to me that the intellegent thing to do
would be to adopt these standards, and if you want to do something
useful, create a "document of documents" that could be used by others,
ie. a list of topics and the corresponding RFC or ANSI or whatever
document is appropriate.  The one thing that NEEDS standardization is
user file maintanance.  The system I'm writing uses a relational
database with "transaction processing" capability, but then I'm not
writing a "DOS BBS".

Remember, not everyone uses COMMAND.COM as their shell. (And thank gods
for small favors like that :-)  Don't be so narrow in focus.  The
Internet has developed a lot of standards and they've been tested,
implemented, and PROVEN interoperable with hundereds of thousands of
machines all over the world, why re-invent the wheel?  Especailly when
the one you're inventing is square?

Subject: Door Control program needed.

Hiya.  I am currently running Renegade v12-21 Beta on my OS/2 system with
2 nodes (one modem, and one local console).  My problem is that none of
my door programs are multi-node capable.  Therefore, I am looking for a 
door program that can tell when a door is in use (is one available?), so
that it can lock the other node out of it.  (I would like to see Renegade
be able to do this, so if anyone out there has access to ITCNet, could
ya forward this request?  Thanks).  I would also need this door controller
be able to write the many various door formats out there. (I strongly agree
that a door drop file standard needs to be made, all these different formats
accomplishes little more than lots of headaches, IMHO).

To be more exact, I would call this door controller from the Renegade BBS,
and then run my doors from it.  Also, as if I didn't have enough requirements
of it already, I would prefer it took up little to no extra memory (EMS/XMS
is fine, though).

If anyone knows of such a beast, please e-mail me.  Prefer FTP site, but
BBS number, or even just the name of it (if you don't know where to get
it) will be helpful.  Thanks.  I'm getting tired of changing ACS strings
everytime to close off a door before I use it, and then reopen it when I
am done :).  Plus in May I will probably have two dialin lines.
