Pyffle BBS - Waffle for the New American Century - http://pyffle.com
====================================================================

Pyffle was created as a tribute to the coolest BBS software ever in
existence, Waffle.

Unfortunately the only version floating around nowadays is a binary-
only copy
of version 1.65 for DOS from 1993 or so (which I do run on B4BBS,
http://sampsa.com/b4bbs, through DOSBOX, with UUCP and everything)
as the Unix sources have gone missing - this prompted the creation of
Pyffle,
the Python re-implementation of Waffle for Unix.

You can test drive it by telnetting to hq.pyffle.com

I've also built a ready-to-run VMWare VM for running Pyffle without
all the annoying hassle of setting up Postgres and stuff yourself.

See http://www.uuhec.net/pyffle-bbs/pyffle-turnkey-vmware-appliance/
for details on downloading and setting the VM up.
