About The Intelec Network
---------------------------
Quality has been our biggest claim to fame and is our most important
growth factor. Intelec is built upon other high standards as well,
like diversity and integrity! Our main focus is on quality as any
network can generate useless bulk mail! What does Intelec represent?
Important issues, tech support and dedication to the BBS user. Our
Admin conference is fully public so any User or SysOp is welcome to
voice his or her opinions or offer their suggestions to the network.
For PCBoard we support RoseMail, Rnet, Qnet and Cam-Mail, and other
BBS's use QWiKerNet, Jnet, GTQwk, GAPQwk, BGNet, GTQwk software. Our
our membership includes PCBoard, Wildcat, Gap, Spitfire, TriBBS, and
more, all working together seamlessly! While Intelec currently has a
few PCRelay members we will not be accepting applications from any
additional PCRelay SysOps. We are officially a QWK-based network so
no PostLink and no additional PCRelay applicants. Sorry folks....
Intelec also has among it's membership several author-supported con-
ferences and authors who support their software in one of our other
conferences such as BBS-Door, SysOps, PCBoard, Communication & more.
Vic Kass of RoseMail, Fred Brucker {Commo}, Tsung Hu of Telemate/
Giflite, Stacy Smith of ULP, and direct support of OLX/SLMR/QModem/
Wildcat from the folks at MSI! Many others grace the Intelec Network
as well! Tech support is never far off! We're also sharing CDCs PCB
support forum with RIME, Fido for maximum support. Also in Intelec is
Raymond Clements the author of DORPATCH and other fine BBS door programs!
We also offer the fantastic services of Quarterdeck Canada's Michael
Bolton!
About the Intelec Founder
---------------------------
In mid 1989 there was a need for a network based on the philosophy
that a network can be administrated without all the "politics and
petty personality clashes" which are still very widespread today.
While Intelec, as most networks did, started out rather small, our
growth was more rapid than most. Growth can cause severe growing
pains in some networks but it did not seem to affect Intelec as we
always maintained a keen focus on what was important. For as long
as the focus is maintained, Intelec will always be one of the more
popular networks available to any BBS's users.
Intelec was previously named NetPro but that name was short-lived.
Intelec Online, in operation since October of 1985, was the host
system for the Intelec Network and soon after the network adopted
its name. The Intelec Network was founded by Cliff Watkins and it
was molded with the help of folks like Dave Calmer, Gordon Lincoln
and many others. Cliff's vision of how a network should be run was
unique in the respect that he felt at home being "down in the
trenches" and not behind some committee of bureaucratic red tape.
Sadly, Cliff is no longer the administrator of the Intelec Network
but his vision will continue through those of us he has inspired.
In May of 1993 Cliff passed the torch to a veteran Intelec member,
Dave Calmer. Cliff and Dave are longtime friends and both share
the same vision of how the Intelec Network should be run. Cliff,
known to his comrades as "The Benevolent Dictator" was unique in
how he operated the network. His sense of fairness, gentle nature
and insights were key to Intelec's success. And this success will
continue under the leadership of Dave Calmer. Cliff will be missed
almost as much as Cliff will miss doing what he loved most. But if
there's one thing you can count on, it's that he will always be in
the hearts and minds of those of us inspired by him.
