You can reach teh SyncDraw maintainer, Deuce, in #synchronet at irc.synchro.netããThe MysticDraw author recently posted on one of the message networks (fsxNet? FidoNet?) about resuming or restarting that project, so you may be able to find and ask the original author directly.ã-- ã digital man (rob)ããBreaking Bad quote #51:ãI did it for me. I liked it.
