Doug,

After phoning around, I chose CBBS by Ward Christensen and Randy Suess
(spelling?)
and have installed CBBS to my Xerox 820.

It's written in 8080 code and has many features. As well as being
straight forward to use, it runs fast in a small amount of code and has
nice features for unwanted or frivolous guests. It does cost $50 payable
to Randy in Chicago.

If you want to use a high level language you could look into the new one
written in 'C' which has "rooms", can't remember the name offhand,

I'd be interested to hear if anyone has used PL/I for this sort of
thing, I'd heard its the most portable language across the 8 & 16 bit
world.
