I chatted with David Parsons (orc), the author of STadel BBS,
a few minutes ago and he gave me some information on the 
upcoming version 3.3a (shareware). 

It probably will be released to a couple of beta sites in 
the next few weeks -- assuming he can get to a working ST
to compile it. His 1040 has officially died and he's sold off
the hard disk. Development is proceeding on a PC clone, however.

3.3a will be able to network with other STadel/STadel-PC/Citadel-86/
Citadel-68K/Amidel systems using xmodem, ymodem or wxmodem, depending
on the net partner's capability. Wxmodem should greatly improve
performance when netting via PC Pursuit. The Citadel network now
stands at 52 nodes, including one run by Atari Corp. (408-745-2051).

UUCALL, the STadel/UUCP networker, is being reworked toward
full uucico compatibility. It will not be distributed with STadel
and may be sold through an existing software house. The portion
of UUCALL that integrates mail with the STadel message base will 
be converted into a stand-alone rmail program so UUCP can do the usual
rmail commands to channel mail to BBS users.
