Re: It's MACOS dammit
I've never used GBBS nor any other BBS operating systems for that matter.
I had heard much praise and interest in GBBS though over the past years. The
current postings on matters of legal action and the problems curtailing it's
past ftp site
availability and use to the public seems to me an indication that the current
Steven H. Lichter claiming ownership of GBBS is doing more to kill it than save
it for future preservation and usefulness.
I've even requested the removal of some collectives that were designed for use
with the GBBS, and had been available from the AOL Apple II collection of
archives, that I coordinated the transfer and preservation of to our Apple II
ftp site - Ground - for free public access to by all Apple II users on the
Internet. They have been removed.
After all, why waste space on an ftp site with archives designed fo use with
something - when nobody can have access to what it was designed for use with?
