i am happy to know you got inspirated from irex, irex is cool imho, but
with lost source there is no future of it anymore, only can hope the money
collection will make author begin code irex ng or simply pay back in other
ways, on the other hands if he give them to grandchilds that runs fidonet
nodes its still cool :)
