I've been hanging around in the #bbs-scene channel on this IRC server
since early November now. But you see almost no activity at all. A lot
of joins but most leave again after a few minutes. And allmost no real
names...
All of the action happens in #bbs. #bbs-scene is the official help channel for the network. All of the joins and leaves are spam/virus checking bots that hop into the rooms to make sure no one is doing something the shouldn't. If you do a /list you will see many bbs related channels that have 20-50 users each like #bbs, #synchronet, #enthral.
I joined #bbs-scene because it seemed like the general channel with the
most users. #synchronet and #enthral seem to have a rather specific topic. #bbs wasn't visible in the list (strange?), but a '/join #bbs' worked fine...

On my harddisk I found some files from 1999. I put them online:
http://www.vlzn.nl/amiganet/INDEX.HTM
It's old and not up to date, but maybe it's usable as a basis for a
new site. If anyone likes to do this, let me know!

No, I don't know of any website but I'd be more than
willing to offer some space on one of my servers if someone is willing
to run/maintain it.

Yes, but it's all I could find. The boing-balls are nice though. ;)

Just had a look to see if "amiganet.org" was taken, and it is... #-(
amiganet.net is free though.
But what's the point with the current state of things, I thought,
just before I clicked on the buy button...
