Missed the cc line. Also I have mailman up @ lakewoodmicro.com at Digital Ocean.

Television was autocorrect but I wrote "Telebit" at the time. Perhaps setting up a mumble server for voice chat makes sense.

Welcome! We're currently hanging out in the #retronet group on the Synchronet network (I'm accessing through irc.chivanet.org). I've personally done UUCP over SSH multiple times. It looks like TCP port 540 is reserved for UUCP over TCP and TCP port 4031 is reserved for UUCP over SSL. So, we'll definitely be offering those services inside of RetroNet. Currently the idea is to make services available inside of RetroNet. I don't know how many services will be openly available across the Internet. Primarily for security / safety reasons. That being said, I think we are planing on a gateway for things. We're certainly willing to talk about other options too. I / we would like to know more about the "over ether as serial" part. I'd think the goal would be to have RS-232 (et al) serial ports that can connect to retro computers and make things look like what they would expect to see. That being said, we will either need an RS-232 (et al) serial port on a gateway, or something else to translate from serial to likely an IP~>telnet connection. If you have ideas, please bring them and share them. Yep. :-) -- Grant. . . . unix || die
