17     Introduction
18     ============

20     This software (named as LBBS) aims to providing a telnet-based interface for
21     a pure web-based BBS (named as LeafOK BBS).
22     LeafOK BBS is a powerful BBS system, not only providing almost every function
23     that a standard BBS should have, but also giving many features other BBS hasn't
24     complemented yet.
25     As an open source project, LeafOK BBS use MySQL as its major data depository,
26     and PHP as its developing language. With MySQL and PHP, LeafOK BBS becomes a
27     platform-independent system. It can works stably on many popular Web Servers
28     such as Apache and IIS.
29     However, as a pure web-based BBS, its shortage is inevitable. For LeafOK BBS
30     uses Browser/Server as its architecture, it will cause more data traffic between
31     Users and Server than telnet-based BBS, and its response is a little slower than
32     telnet-based BBS.
33     In order to conquer these shortage, a new project was launched. LBBS is a
34     telnet-based BBS which is full compatible with LeafOK BBS. It also uses MySQL as
35     its data repository, and keep coherence with the data structure of LeafOK BBS.
36     LBBS is designed to be a system running on Linux, with GNU C as its developing
37     language. For my spare time is very limit, I decide not to make LBBS as a
38     cross-platform system temporarily. If you have interest in developing this system,
39     please contact me.
40     Thank you for using this software. If you meet any bugs or have any suggestion,
41     please tell me.
