In some cases the most difficult part is finding the author.  We have been able
to accumulate the source code to many major WWIV programs.  Then the work
begins to ensure they will work with things today.

One cool program one of the crew is working on is a "WWIVnet Status List"
showing all the systems in WWIVnet and the version they are running along with
if they are online, etc.  That code will eventually be hosted my me once it is
completely ready to go live.
