Joost Klootwijk isn't actively working on the i-project at the moment.
However, he mailed me recently about it. The person who is currently
'working' on th i-project is Trunks, from Spain, his email is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was working on an internet-project myself, but then I came in contact with
Trunks, and I joined in to the i-project. However, I haven't heard from him
for some time, and since I didn't like some parts of his project, e.g. a
multitasking environment, which would -to my opinion- be too difficult to
start with (start simple, add complex things later), and it needed a fast
MSX computer, and since he (and JvK) were the originators of the project I
couldn't 'push' my wishes though.

So I started my own project again, also because now I've got a Sunrise RS232
and wanted to use the Erix Fossil driver. Current state of development:

Finished: HDLC, FTP (well, almost)
Working: PPP (configuring a connection is a real pain in the ass!)
ToDo: IP, TCP, IRC, TELNET, POP3/SMTP, HTTP

Frames and ugly graphics have nothing to do with correct HTML, and when used
correctly, frames can give very good results.

If you are referring to a VT100 terminal, I'm working on a BBS terminal
which supports ANSI on plain simple MSX2 w/o Gfx9000, using the Erix
drivers. Current state of development: fully functional, except
upload/download. Maybe a demo with Ymodem-G download on the Tilburg fair.
