Actually, Roy, the way that I was visualising it (And the way that I am
writing my gateway software) is that ANY sysop will be able to write
gateway cod, for ANY network. I'm busy working on a set of FutureNet
Gateway software for ANY network using a variety of "Toolbox" routines.
The way I'm handling the segment will allow people to use it as a VERY
basic outline for converting data. It contains all the necessary
subroutines to pull mail and posts from datagrams, post incoming data AS
datagrams etc.

It'll all be documented when I get a clearer picture from Josh about
what HE wants to do. Basically, though, the entire segment will be a
GREAT starting point for doing the necessary conversions between Ogg,
Team, IINE etc.. nets..
