The Hackaday BBS

Description

Hackaday needs a BBS. I'll host one.

And because I suffer from a near-terminal case of "Not Invented Here Syndrome", I'm coding it from scratch too.

No worries. Just write a virtual modem that works on top of VOIP.

Bulletin Board System ?... My first use was back in 1978 or so. Prior to the internet that we all know and love ;-) My first modem was acoustic at 300 baud with about 5 or 6 other users on the local BBS for our area ( South Florida ) I don't know, think the current stack and message area on HaD works fairly well for most of what a BBS did in those days :-)

Are you sure? yes | no
