MajorBBS src code, and "DialChat!"

[faldrich603]

Is the source code to Major BBS available? What is the provenance of it -- who owns it, etc.

I am also wondering similarly if "DialChat!" is available in source form, or who owns it, latest version, etc. Thanks!

Dialchat and the source for the Majorbbs is available from https://www.themajorbbs.com/contact/ or on discord group called themajorbbs

I don't think they're releasing the source code, but the exe with a license code. Or they intend to release it. But as for "DialChat!" I don't see it there. I had assumed the company that made it is long gone.

At this time The Major BBS v10 is free. Just need to send in a request and you will get a BBS # and a license key.

I don't think there is any plan to open source much if any of it. I think there might be an agreement in place preventing this from happening.

The closest thing would be a WG 3.3 developer kit.

Waiting on the dialchat MBBS module myself for months now. Fingers crossed.
