Frontier BBS Source Code :

After more than two years of work on its own BBS system, AEGiS has decided to stop its development and to release the FULL sources of their project known as Frontier.  

• Why do we drop development of Frontier ?

The answer is simple : most, if not all, members of AEGiS have dropped interrest in the BBS scene, turning their development to other directions such as Windows programming, MP3 Sound engines, etc.  

• Why do we release the source code ?

Just because we know that, beside the fact that the French BBSes are to die soon, that a lot of other countries don't have the same problem. Local telephone is cheap or even free, and BBSes still live in spite of Internet.

That's why we think our work can still help. And it would be simply stupid to let down so much work and consider it as dead.  

• Why the GNU GPL ?

Just because its a very good way to be sure that our work will be free to be distributed and used in other products. If your needs to use those sources are not covered by the GNU GPL, just contact us.  

• What's included in the package ?  

• Complete sources for the PowerPPL Editor v3.0 (Frontier-dedicated)
• Complete sources for PPC, the PPE Compiler
• Complete sources for the PPC Utilities (PPLIB, PPSTRIP)
• Complete sources for The PPLX Decompiler v2.0
• Complete sources for the PPE Runtime
