This BBS (Bulletin Board System) was created as part of the efforts of the retronetworking community which happens to run a retronetworking assembly at CCC events, the same group also behind the c3isdn on-site ISDN/POTS networks at Chaos events.

We're using Synchronet BBS, one of the few BBS packages that are still under active maintenance and development in 2024. Synchronet doesn't just offer the authentic experience of BBSs decades ago, but offers integration and interfacing with a variety of more modern communications systems and protocols.
