I still have this idea that someone should write a proper BBS system (and
run it) for RSTS...
...the age old problem is getting data in and out of it to connect it to
the world... or one of the problems anyhow. Maybe using a telnet
connection to a terminal device and some sort of homebrew message queueing
system to an outside helper.
The serial to telnet bridge is a solved issue. :) I'd be happy to help,
but I don't know /anything/ about RSTS.
FYI, one of the cheaper ways to do the interface is to use a null modem
cable, a Raspberry Pi, and a copy of tcpser.
