subject: `MAX` vs. Maximus

 Hello All!
 Appears someone has come up with a BBS program he's calling "Max."
 Check out the conversation in BBS_Carnival.
 Is anyone else concerned about the confusion this is going to cause?
 With so many BBS utils named ##Max##.zip -and Max for Maximus, in
 that case- how are we going to be able to tell which BBS it's for
 any longer?  Bwmax320.zip -what's it for?  Etc.
 IMO, "MAX" is a bad choice for naming this thing.  Everyone already uses
 that for shorthand here.  And what about copyright protection?  I'd
 think Lanius would have some feelings on this name they've chosen.
