FOOD FOR THOUGHT

The liberty of speaking and writing guards our other liberties.

EDITORIAL
=================================================================
One of the favourite pastimes in the FIDONEWS echo seems to be to
blame the Snooze editor for the lack of contributions to the Snooze.
This has been going on for many years and past several editors.
One strange thing to notice is, that those that are most vocal in
this claim almost never have been seen making a single contribution
themselves.
But the most odd thing is that nobody seems to ponder the
underlying mathematics. In the mid 1990s Fidonet had more than 30,000
nodes. Most of them with a working BBS with hundreds, even thousands
of users. All in all probably more than 100,000 people, most of whom
were very fluent in reading and writing English.
Today there are 6,000 nodes and almost no BBSs. Of the 6,000 nodes
75% are in regions 46 and 50, where rather few are fluent enough in
written English to be able to write an article for the Snooze.
From 100,000 to 1,500. Surely that must make a difference? One need
only take a look at what used to be one of Fidonet's biggest echo,
PASCAL. It had a steady flow of well over 1,000 messages per week for
many years. Now it's less than one message per week if you don't count
the robot postings. And some people still wonder why there are so few
articles in the Snooze...

Frequently Asked Questions About Telnet BBS Systems
---------------------------------------------------
Written 7/03
Updated 2/06
Telnet BBS User's FAQ
Q. What is a "Telnet" and what is a "Telnet BBS"?
A. Telnet is one of may Internet protocols and systems. The World Wide
Web is only one system. Internet E-mail (POP3 and SMTP), Usenet, FTP
(File Transfer Protocol) are other common Internet protocols. Telnet
is a method of "logging" onto a remote computer and interfacing with
that remote computer via a text interface. If you are familiar with
the traditional "dial-up" BBS, this is basically the same thing but
using the Internet instead of dialing a BBS with your modem.
Q. How do I telnet to these Internet accessable BBS systems?
A. In order to access these Telnet BBS systems - you will need to use
a special kind of software called a "Telnet Client". These are widely
available for users of Windows and OS/2 based operating systems. Most
BBSes use a video standard called ANSI emulation. The following is a
brief list of ANSI telnet software. The one we highly suggest is
mTelnet:
CRT (Windows)
(http://www.vandyke.com/products/crt/index.html)
A great Telnet client - one of the best. Shareware.
mTelnet (OS/2 & Windows)
(http://ozone.eesc.com)
A great telnet client for Windows & OS/2. Freeware.
NetTerm (Windows)
(http://www.netterm.com)
A great Telnet client - highly suggested. Shareware.
ZOC (OS/2 & Windows)
(http://www.emtec.com)
A great Telnet client from Germany - available in both English and
German versions. Versions available for both Windows & OS/2.
Shareware.
Q. Why can't I just use my web browser?
A. Telnet uses a different system than the World Wide Web (HTTP or
Hyper Teletext Protocol). You must use a Telnet Client, as described
above. Once you install a Telnet Client, you may wish to visit our How
To Telnet page (http://www.dmine.com/telnet/howto.htm) to understand
the proper addressing format (its almost like the web, just a little
bit different).
Q. Will I be charged to telnet to an Internet accessable BBS system?
A. Your will *NOT* be charged be accessing a BBS. The vast majority of
FIDONEWS 23-08 Page 4 20 Feb 2006
BBS systems are absolutely *FREE*. However, there are a very select
few BBS systems that do request payment to access their system. Those
that do charge will inform you when you log onto a BBS that you must
send the System Operator (Sysop) a payment (personal check or credit
card). Each system is different. But it is your option to utilize
these systems, and you won't receive any surprise billings on your
Internet bill. (Your Internet provider doesn't charge you extra for
visiting other websites or sending E-mail. Same goes for BBS systems.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Telnet BBS Sysop's FAQ
Q. How do I set up a Telnet BBS??
A. If you have never operated a Telnet BBS system before and wish to
set one up, please see our section on Setting Up a Telnet BBS System
(http://www.dmine.com/bbscorner/telnet.htm).
Q. How do I add my Telnet BBS to the Telnet BBS Guide?
A. Adding (or updating) your Telnet BBS is free of charge and can be
done easily at our Add or Update a Telnet BBS Listing page
(http://www.dmine.com/telnet/addbbs.htm).
Q. Is it possible to operate a BBS on the Web?
A. The general answer to this question is no. Most BBS systems do not
lend themselves to the web. Hence, you can run a telnet BBS on the
Internet, but it will not have a web-based interface. Some exceptions
are Wildcat Winserver (http://www.santronics.com/) and Worldgroup
(http://www.worldgroupware.com), both of which offer web-based
interfaces in addition to their traditional ANSI interfaces (dial-up
and telnet). For those who run their own web servers on the same
computer as their BBS, there is a Java applet called Java Telnet
Client (http://www.mud.de/se/jta) that provides a telnet interface on
a web page. It is slow to load and it does work, but doesn't allow for
file transfers (Zmodem). And for those of you who like a full
web-based interface, Synchronet (http://www.synchro.net) now has a
web-based interface available.

One approach to tracking and viewing Fidonet related websites is to
visit webrings that specialize in Fidonet.
A webring is a method where sites having a common theme advertise
other websites with simailar themes. The advantage to the webring
concept is that in theory, the sites have an interest in maintaining
an accuate listing and can modify their own listings on a site by
site basis.
It appears that there are two fidonet webrings....the long-running
system at http://b.webring.com/hub?ring=fidonet and another at
http://www.fidonet.us/fidoring/
The ring at webring.com is larger, but forces the viewer to look at
google ads panels. The smaller ring at fidonet.us does not depend on
adverstising revenue from ads.
Sysops with Fidonet related websites should consider joining one or
both rings.

FIDONEWS INFORMATION
=================================================================
How to Submit an Article
If you wish to submit an article for inclusion in the Fidonews, here
are some guidelines, if you send it as an attached file; the preferred
method if you want reasonable control over how the published article
will appear in the Fidonews:
a) Plain ASCII text. If you could type it on your keyboard, it's
probably quite OK. No line may be longer than 70 characters.
b) Put a title to the article. Put the title in two times. The first
time, on the first line, with an * before it. The second time, on
the second line, without the * and centered. This will help in the
format since the title with the * is removed and used in the index,
the second line will become the headline. On the third line, put
your name and FidoNet address, present or former. If former, you
may want to add some other address where you can be reached for
personal comments.
c) Deadline for article submission is Sunday, 22:00 UTC.
Help the Editor by following the above guides. Below are some subjects
and the file extension for the article as set in the configuration
file for the making of the Fidonews. Please help by putting the file
extension of the correct subject on the file name if known.
Ideas for Subject areas:
Subject File | Subject File
----------------------------------|----------------------------------
From the *C's *.css | Rebuttals to articles *.reb
Fidonet Regional News *.reg | Fidonet Net News *.net
Retractions *.rtx | General Fidonet Articles *.art

Fidonet's Int. Kitchen *.rec | Poet's Corner *.poe
Clean Humor & Jokes *.jok | Other Stuff *.oth
Fidonet Classified Ads *.ads | Corrections *.cor
Best of Fidonet *.bof | Letters to the Editor *.let
If you don't know or are not sure, send the article anyway. Put a .TXT
on it and I'll try to figure out where it should be in the Fidonews.
If you follow these simple guidelines, there should be little problem
in getting your article published. If your submission is too far out
of specs for the Fidonews, it will be returned to you and/or a message
sent informing you of the problem. This DOES NOT mean that your
article is not accepted. It means that there is something in it that I
can not fix and I need your help on it.
FIDONEWS 23-08 Page 26 20 Feb 2006
Send articles via e-mail or netmail, file attach or message to:
Björn Felten
Fidonet 2:2/2
E-Mail bfelten @ telia dot com
IMPORTANT! If you send the article via e-mail, make sure you put the
word "fidonews" somewhere in the subject line! That way it
will always pass the spam filter, ending up in the proper
folder.
Please include a message, telling me that you have sent an article.
That way I will know to look for it.
