Is there any roadmap for a 2026 edition?

Simple and practical goals to make the program better and not canibalize excessive time of the maintainers?

not a roadmap, but areas that i plan to work on in 2026:

1) file transfer protocol rework - i am not sure if upload/download functions still work properly using X/Y/Zmodem, etc, but this appears to be a bug that bites us in a lot of areas (not just in the Transfer section). this is critical for the QWK messaging for example, and in message upload/download, as well as for the File section.

2) down in the weeds work on network sub subscribing/unsubscribing, autosend foundations, blah.

3) file transfer area rework - not a big priority for me, but for completeness, WWIV has to have a working file transfer area.

4) WWIV-web interface - not necessary, but would be fun to have, or even just a JSTerm like thing. or a package WWIV sysops can just install and then have their BBS accessible via a web browser easily.

Such as auditing the protocols with the various functions?

Yea, windows and linux should have some autosend type features.

3) file transfer area rework - not a big priority for me, but for

LFN support? Maybe people can toggle if they want lfn or not.

Like synchronet as an example?
