    Curious, is this echo active? There has been alot of activity on
    Facebook abou PC Board. Is anyone here that's working on it now in
    here? I have a few questions...

    I can confirm the area is active. There is one BBS in net 153 running PCBoard and probably any number of others too.


    OK, thanks. :)

    The 'New' group has a site setup on github, with the source. I'd LOVE to be able to compile it in linux! I wish I was a programmer. I am gonna see if I can play around with it though

    Interesting... Is there some specific page/place on FB that you
    are seeing "a lot of activity" regarding PCB? The couple of PCB
    pages that I can see on FB are apparently not the right ones.

    Yes this echo is still active but there are very few messages here.

    Where can I find the Facebook group? I have been running PCBoard since
    v.14 up to v15.4 Beta. Since v15.2 under OS/2.

    This echo is active, but quite slow.

    What FB page(s) are you seeing a lot of activity about PCB on? The couple of FB pages I can find for PCB are nearly dead. Would like to visit an active one... Can you provide the specific name of the page? Thanks!

    Hi Charles,

    Yes PCBoard v16 is being worked on by Ozz Nixon. It is being written in
    Modern Pascal which is 16/32/64bit compatible. This is an open source
    project. I will be hosting the first alpha/beta test board. Much will be changed, much will be added. At the moment, the project needs a
    document writer to assemble the beginings of a manual. No easy task!
    Anyone versed in PCB with good language skill please reply. I will post
    the progress of this project in this echo once an alpha version is up
    and running. A timeline is yet TBD.

    Cheers!
