BayNet History
==============
8/92 Founders started bouncing around the idea of a new network. Originally
intended to only link two BBSs, it was decided to create a net that
was available to any system within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The overall goal is to link all users without having to pay for long
distance charges.

packet.
11/92 Fido style echoing is added via DataCore
3/08/93 Second info pack is generated, includes node list (9 nodes and growing)
3/21/93 More nodes, slight changes to application.
