If I did it now, I'd be using Python. There are some terminal servers in Python
that could be adapted to become BBS Software without too much difficulty. I
think the hard part wouldbe the protocols and standards as you said, which are
all from the 90s. Getting around those would be tough, but imagine if you could
write software that is one click ready for Fidonet and other mail networks....
