No problems here, that I'm aware of. I raised the issue because it's been a
hot topic of discussion in our local sysops' echo lately. I was a Maximus
beta tester from pre-1.0 days up through the last release, so a lot of
other sysops here set up and ran Maximus. It's still one of the more
popular bbs packages in use here, AFAIK.
