Well, what is wrong with those BBSes?  The fact that YOU don't like
them, doesn't make the programs useless.  Somebody might like those.

Besides, this is a Public Archive for Public Domain or freely
distributable things.  From the examples you mention, I KNOW that
C-Net/DS-II is Copyrighted, thus cannot be put in an Archive.
(Though, I have worked with C-Net v4.0 128, and I can say that is VERY
GOOD program, supports 2400bd, and has PUnter, Xmodem, CG graphics and
ANSI as well.  And it is ML and BASIC, and it is very easy to modify.
It is a very good program... but back to our regularly scheduled
flame)

If you recommend those programs so much, and they are public domain,
why don't you do us a favor and submit them to the server huh?  Stop
complaining and DO SOMETHING!

(Sorry for wasting bandwidth (wasted bandwidth, in Comp.sys.cbm?!?!?!)
but I hate people that complain but don't contribute!)
