I'm not sure about the non-C/C++ or non-BASIC code, but the source code 
I've looked at from time to time didn't even compile properly.  I did 
have luck once upon a time getting an old version of WWIV to compile.  
Even got the something of it to execute.  The configuration program I 
think.

Fortunately, it's somewhat of a better situation these days.  Synchronet 
is effectively open source and last I heard a guy was re-writing 
Renegade.  Beyond that, I'm not really sure as I'm really out of the 
loop these days....
