Other things being worked and in various stages of

support, I envision creating a 'BAN X.25 PSDN', a virtual hobbyist
Telenet/Tymnet-like PSN network for X.25 systems. There are other exciting
Multics projects in progress by other parties as well.
Now this would be *awesome*. Over the years I've had some opportunity to
rescue some X.25 gear but declined because I didn't have a use for it.
Let's just say I spent a fair bit of time on Telenet/Sprintnet back in the
day and it would be neat to capture that nostalgia.
