Planet Internet - The Developers
Planet Internet's interface and superdaemon is being developed by a
company called 'Evolution' in New York, USA. This company is owned and managed
by Bruce Fancher aka "Death Lord", also owner and manager of Phantom
or mindvox a public access internet site (http://www.phantom.com). Bruce Fancher
has been involved in Legion of Doom, a hard-core hackergroup.
Here is some information that was found about Bruce and Evolution's developme
team:
About Bruce Fancher aka Death Lord:
Bruce Fancher is the manager of Mindvox and Evolution. He was seen at HOPE (hackers-congress), people noted him because of his racist remarks.
Quote from wired article - MindVox: Urban Attitude Online
"Meanwhile, also in New York City, there was Bruce Fancher, who looked too neat, clean, and classy to be a hacker. He parted his hair on the side, wore oxford shirts, and kept his black shoes highly polished. But Bruce enjoyed the cut-and-thrust of online jousting as much as anyone, and each day after school he swung by the phone company and went through their garbage, looking for switching-system documentation that he could trade with his friends from the Legion of Doom, who met at the local Burger King."
Quote from Mondo 2000: issue 8 There's A Party in my Mind.. MindVox!
• It's not gonna be all happily ever after. MindVox has its problems. For one thing, Phantom Access has its inescapable roots in the hardcore hacker underground. Patrick and Bruce were involved with the legendary Legion of Doom. Two of the most illustrious/infamous figures in hacker history Len Rose and Phiber Optik worked on the design and implementation of MindVox. And with the Internet connectivity, there's the paranoia that MindVox will become a hangout for hackers. System administrators could take a NIMBY not in my back yard attitude to MindVox, since the Internet is already a hotbed of hacker activity."
Quote from THE ASSOCIATED PRESS - Wiring The Planet-MindVox - By FRANK BAJAK
• This is the 12-by-20-foor bare-walled home of MindVox, today's recreation
hall for the new lost generation's telecomputing crowd. You can enter by phone
line or directly off Internet.
Patrick Kroupa and Bruce Fancher are the proprieters, former Legion of Doom
telephone hackers who cut the cord with computing for a time after mid-1980's
teenage shenanigans."
Quote from Boardwatch Magazine, Volume Vl Issue 10 December, 1992
• But since Rose had already plead guilty, his sentencing, despite the
fact that it occurred after the Neidorf trial and after what actually amount
to fraud and manipulation of the justice system by the telephone
company had been revealed, somehow Rose got 14 months in prison anyway Rose
was released a few months ago, and apparently Kroupa has hired Rose as the system
administrator and chief of security on the MindVox system. And Neidorf and Jim
Thomas are on the system regularly along with a host of luminaries from the
network and the hacker underground. Bruce Sterling, author of THE HACKER CRACKDOWN
has been on a few times and the system seems to be forming up as a hangout for
a whole bevy of maturing hacker underground types. This makes for a rather interesting
community of users."

Hello... This page belongs to Marc Anthony DeLegge, aka Slash, aka LunarCamel I'm one of the cheerful developers at Evolution OnLine Systems. My work here involves modifing HTTPD source code to do online database transactions for authentication using C++. I'm also responsible for the care and feeding of our local Sybase SQLServer.
Matthew Cable (Wozz) http://www.phantom.com/-wozzeck
Well, as stated earlier, Wozz now works for MindVox. His duties consist
of fixing things and making new things to fix. He likes to think things
are better now than they were a year ago, but others might disagree. Recently
the owner of MindVox, Bruce Fancher started another venture. Evolution Online
Systems designs online system software. Currently, I maintain their network,
in addition to MindVox's. Evolution's first client was the Dutch Phone Company,
the PTT. We've been helping them set up their new online system, (the largest
in Holland), Planet Internet. As a result, Wozz has been flying to Amsterdam
every few months to bang on the machines and ogle the Crays. Not to worry, however...
the genius's at SARA have everything under control.
Sarah Timko http://wilson.evolution.com/Sarah/sarah.htm
I'm a computer consultant currently working for Evolution On Line Systems. We are creating a way cool Surfing tool called Surfboard which will be the client of choice for Planet Internet (an internet server the Dutch phone company is running ... which is also being developed in this office )
We are building the Client in Delphi which is very cool despite the fact that it is object oriented Pascal ( I previously thought pascal was only a ugly rumor.... much like DOS) My little peice of this is the I/O layer... how to get the information from various places and how to make it available to the rest of the client to use.
These links are for Delphi information. Delphi is Borland's new Object Pascal programming system. It's very cool. We are using it to develop the fabulous new WWW browser from Evolution On-Line Systems. Evolution statement

Our Raison D'Etre
To design, create, and propigate a cohesive multi-service internet daemon.
The daemon will provide a common place to transact online and unite users into
progressive (or not) and entertaining virtual communities.
To enhance the technology currently in use for internet activities towards a
more flexible and effective model.
To consume massive quantities of pizza and elevate pool playing to the Olympi class sport it deserves to be.
To interface with the parallel client software, Dubbed the SurfBoard , in an especially efficent manner to provide an integrated access point to the services provided by the Daemon.
