There's also AKCS, and Picospan, and.......

In short, there's lots of "bbs" systems out there for Unixoid operating
systems.  Yes, XBBS and UnAxcess are available, but so are others... 
especially if you are willing to go beyond the free software and into the 
commercial arena.  Most of the "commercial" packages go far beyond the free
ones, including features such as linkage with Usenet, linkage with other
conference sites (ala Usenet), threaded organization and much more.

I've worked with UnaXcess some time back; it was the reason we wrote AKCS (I
got tired of pulling my hair out, as did our users).

Drop me a note if you'd like some info on AKCS (yes, it's one of our products, 
so I am of course biased), or see our regular postings in biz.comp.software.
