well now he said he wasn't talking about making these changes to syncterm AND
synchronet bbs despite making these implications:

"Almost anything else is subject to the axe IMHO... telnet, rlogin, CP437,
ANSI, dial-up, serial connections, it's all a holdover from the 70s.  If
Synchronet can't grow up and move into the 90s pretty soon, it's too late.
Reading three months of Dove and FIDO nets supports me on this. "

it's easy to think he's changing syncterm AND synchronet with those last 2
sentences and the fact that he is a synchronet developer with access to the
synchronet cvs [and makes modifications as he pleases].

 i'm sure to some degree there is going to be some fiddling with synchronet in
regards to Deuce's new vision of how things should be.

anyways, it's still a bad thing that syncterm is going to be reduced to an
experimental
synchronet only client.

syncterm is one of the better telnet/rlogin apps for linux, and i'm sure the
direction he is taking syncterm is going to be fruitless.
