Bote 2001   Message List

Re: Bote 2001

Can someone talk to Jerry and find out if he's interested at all in
running the BOTE? Once we have a clear indication of which SysOps
would be interested, then it might be an easy to figure out where to
run it...

Also, Talon's suggestion on a BOTE, conclusion sounds quite
reasonable.

-Timbo.
