  • Happy birthday to BCG-Box, 32 years!

    From Kim Heino@2:222/2 to All on Sun Feb 10 17:13:00 2019
    On this day 32 years ago I launched my BBS called BCG-Box. It was running on Commodore 64 using EBBS software. A lot has happened since.

    To celebrate that a shiny new Toy is released:

    https://b.bbbs.net/simka/

    This version includes new web interface which is based on Bootstrap framework. It means that menus/*.www files have been mostly rewritten. If you have made some local modifications you have to do them again.

    I recommend you to backup your old binaries, scripts and menus before upgrade.

    As previously: Linux-64 binary is compiled in RHEL7, Linux-32 in RHEL6, armvl6 in Debian 9 / RPi. You might need to upgrade/downgrade/symlink some libraries if you are using something else. Don't ask for Win64 version at this point.
