    Hey Andrew!

    Someone asked about running Synchronet BBS in a docker container.

    I was thinking more along the line of a standard ansi-type bbs except in my case it would serve up the 'linux' terminal which in my case also happens to have framebuffer graphics available to it. That way it potentially could serve up pdf and the such. I think a stock ttylinux could easily handle something like this although I'd have to work out the graphical output ... also utf-8 will require a bit of jiggery-pokery.

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    Hey Andrew!

    Last week I started updating ttylinux ... but it's doubtful I'll
    continue with it on my own.

    It is far too much of a commitment for this old man. These days I am sticking to playing and helping out where I can. As for lfs, I doubt I could quit at this stage of the game. I got hooked around the same time I first started playing with ttylinux. For me they almost became the same thing.

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    Hey Andrew!

    It's good to know where you're at. :)

    I suppose it would be. :-/
