    Over the last few weeks, I have been writing my own usenet reader as a bbs door. I am currently looking for anyone who is wishing to test iott.

    It is in no way ready for main stream (need to get rid of abit of hard coded areas first lol).

    If your interested or even interested in having on your board (its win32 only at the moment) log in

    telnet://catsbbs.hopto.org

    Web: http://catsbbs.yolasite.com/ (Browser Login)

    Its currently under usenet in the messages menu.

    Why are you doing it via a Door? USENET was more or less born on the BBS,
    and there are lots of tossers you can use for it already and thrown into
    your own newsgroups.

    Wrong. You might want to do your research on this.

    In the context of the discussion, Usenet has been on BBS's for the general public before the general Internet.
