Hi guys

I know a couple of you have hinted that you might like to try Magicka at some point when you get time, well I'd really like to test the interbbs part of MagiChat. My Magichat server is firewalled off at the moment, but if someone happens to install magicka and wants to try magichat, can you let me know so we can get it working?

Let me get the IPv6 and Wiki to-do's done and then I will jump in also :)

Another reason to try Magicka. Hmm, would be good if we could have a cross platform chat. Now there's MRC and MagiChat. Would we be better off with a more unified, cross platform chat?

I can feel a new BBS coming on, even if it's just a plaything for me. :)

It's called an echo area ;-P

Yeah it probably would be better. I looked at the MRC source, and it was easier to just write something to fit in with what I already had.

Aren't all the BBSes just a plaything for sysops :D

So it MagiChat is an echo, not a chat system?

There's also a chat built into MBSE. My system is connected to
one other BBS. ;)

This is as bad as digital ham radio - D-STAR, DMR, Fusion, P25, NXDN, etc. All separate and incompatible.
