        I for one would be *very* interested in helping out with this type
of project. I've been wanting to write DOS BBS for a long time, and the
idea of a good BBS to run under Linux sounds even better.. After all, the
good stuff is already there! Multiple terminals, multitasking,
multithreading.

        And the best part is that it'd be FREE! (Pet peeve: BBS software
you don't get the source for.)
