- Just a note:
-
- There is a new network starting up in the UK. Its called MAXsNET II
- (original huh?? ;) ) - apparently this has occured because
-
- 1) people didnt want to contribute a few UKP each year to those BBSs
- (such as mine) that got email from Australia <-> UK
-
- 2) Some people think all the MAXsBBS doors that are available all come
- from the UK
-
- 3) some people wanted a UK only network with no foreigners
-
- 4) some people thought it would be cool to start their own net
-
-
- now, whilst i will not knock this effort i want to point out a few
- things
-
- 1) if you are so tight, will you really poll each other enough times in
- a week to ensure a good service?
-
- 2 & 3) If you want to support DOORs makers, they DO come from other
- countries....and since the development team for MAXsBBS is now active in
- australia, wouldnt it be in your best interests to keep MAxsNET alive?
-
- 4) see above
-
-
- now, i WILL be polling for MAXsNET II some time in the future - but i am
- hoping that i can send the packets down to australia - where they would
- want to read them too! :) :)
