Multiple dnet questions:

Does anyone know where to find the source for a SIMPLE terminal emulator? 
  I'm trying to write a replacement for fterm, the dnet terminal server, 
  that does adequate vt100 (and eventually tek) emulation.  dnet is a 
  fantastic program, but its usability is IMHO greatly reduced by a lack
  of terminal functions when connected to a UNIX box.

Anyway, I've never written anything like this before, and I need something 
  more to go on than the fterm source as it stands.  I tried looking at vt100r29
  source, but was frustrated by the sheer size of the thing.  something more 
  "readable" would be just the thing.  

On a similar line, since Dillon's dbbs doesn't appear to be forthcoming, 
  does anyone know of a simple bbs source?  I know enough people who have written
  bbs's to know it can't be THAT hard, but, again, I don't have anything to 
  work from.

In a post a few days ago, Tad Guy mentioned the coolness of dnet's nfs
  server.  What exactly is it?  Have I been using it without knowing, or 
  am I totally missing out?

Finally, I've read articles mentioning a dnet mailing list.  How? Where?
  What?  

Thanks for any info/advice.
