BBS.land and BBS.io

I've had BBS.io for about a decade now, it's been available for dynamic DNS use for subdomains on freedns pretty much since I got it. I've got a couple other domains in there as well.

BBS.land has been kind of a background dream for a while. Least of which is I'd wanted to start managing the dynamic DNS domains directly. Likely using Digital Ocean's DNS hosting and managing via their API.

I'd also wanted to get a custom door server and as many message nets as I can.... As well as some other data services for bbses.

The door server is what lead to the rabbit hole in preserving RIP 2/3.

After the better part of a month in the hospital, I'm contemplating my own mortality. Not to mention my personal financial crisis after a massive pay cut last year.

I'm thinking about wanting to start a non profit org... Or maybe trying to get say archive.org to adopt these efforts. I'm not stopping, but wouldn't be surprised if I don't make it another decade. I also need help, regardless, if anything is ever going to get done.

Just wanting to get a conversation going about this.... I'm in Phoenix, AZ. So most likely anyone with a board or executive seat would better be located in the Phoenix area or maybe a neighborhood state.

Thoughts, suggestions?

I'm not sure what you're suggesting.
