Yes. The people at Lysator also wanted a new KOM system, since the original ran on PDP-10 systems, which aren't exactly around any more (well, except for around this crowd).
So they did an implementation for which a specific protocol for clients, so that you can have multiple different clients.
That KOM-system is nice, but I prefer the original. Matter of taste, I think.

But in ways, this KOM system is even better. But that also is a matter of taste. :-)

Anyway, my emulated RSTS/E system is up 24/7 and I run V8 by choice.
So if you're looking to find a home for a vintage KOM BBS, I'm offering.

Hmm. That would definitely be interesting.
Let's talk offlist, and see if we can get it up and running.
