Hi,     I'm thinking about setting Linux up and running it as a bbs. I
figured that it would make a quite powerful bbs, allowing the users to
do much more than uploading, downloading files and read news.  I'm 
wondering if anyone has done this before and would give me some suggestions.
I know Linux has bugs, etc. but I believe that it's save enough for nice
users.
        I'm especially interested in ways of setting up "notes" or "news"
etc. on Linux.  I was planning on writing one, but decided to ask around
if there're such programs already for Linux first.
        Any help would be appreciated.

Please email.
