There is one package, Amanda, written by David Douthitt to process Fidonet news packets for MSDOS Waffle v1.65. Amanda is on (old) SimTel. ddouthitt@usa.net [old] There is another package, Erin, written also by David Douthitt, which will handle Fidonet mail packets for MSDOS Waffle v1.65. However, this package is not yet released. Information on Erin will be released through the amanda-l mailing list [now defunct] as it becomes available, and will be available there first. Both Amanda and Erin require MSDOS Waffle v1.65 (complete), and a Fidonet mailer such as FrontDoor or BinkleyTerm.
