I have been able to download files from it (although only at 300 baud -- the
last time I tried at 1200, the lines were far too noisy). The BBS uses 
Punter protocol (like pretty much everything else that's Commodore-specific).
There are both sources and binaries available. I don't have a list here with
me of what is available, but (from memory) a few of the better ones include
an assembler which generates relocatables that can be linked with the C-power
linker, a disassembler for such relocatables, and a graphics library.
	I can't help you with anything like mailing you the software, since
my C-64 can't be connected to this system without going through more trouble
that I care to deal with.


	So many wheels, so little time...
