- -----------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Limited Distribution License:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- As the exclusive copyright holder for ARCHIVE TRACKER, Robert Barrentine
- authorizes on-line distribution only in accordance with the following
- restrictions. Disk Vendors and Distributors should refer to the VENDOR.DOC
- text file for complete license information.
-
- The ARCHIVE TRACKER package is defined as containing all the material
- listed in the PACKING.LST text file. If any files listed in the
- PACKING.LST text file, or the PACKING.LST file itself, are missing, then
- the package is not complete and distribution is forbidden. Please contact
- us to obtain a complete package suitable for distribution.
-
- o The ARCHIVE TRACKER package - including all related program files
- and documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way (other than that
- mentioned in the following paragraph) and must be distributed as a
- complete package, without exception. The PACKING.LST text file contains a
- list of all files that are part of the ARCHIVE TRACKER package.
-
- o Many BBSs customarily add a small text file <advertisement) to each
- archived file. This text file describes the BBS and tells people that the
- file was downloaded from that particular BBS. Other BBSs add a small one-
- line message with their BBS name and phone number into the compressed
- file, which will display when the file is uncompressed. Either of these
- methods of mentioning your BBS are acceptable and may be used, provided
- the program and documentation is otherwise unmodified and complete.
-
- o Robert Barrentine prohibits the distribution of outdated versions
- of the ARCHIVE TRACKER package, without written permission from Robert
- Barrentine. If the version you have obtained is over twelve (12) months
- old, please contact us to ensure that you have the most current
- version.
-
- o Licensee shall not use, copy, rent, lease, sell, modify, decompile,
- disassemble, otherwise reverse engineer, or transfer the licensed program
- except as provided in this agreement. Any such unauthorized use shall
- result in immediate and automatic termination of this license.
-
- o U.S. Government Information: Use, duplication, or disclosure by
- the U.S. Government of the computer software and documentation in this
- package shall be subject to the restricted rights applicable to commercial
- computer software as set forth in subdivision (b)(3)(ii) of the Rights in
- Technical Data and Computer Software clause at 252.227-7013 (DFARS
- 52.227-7013). The Contractor/manufacturer is Robert Barrentine, 321 1/2

- Membership Application Package:

-
- BBS Update Program:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Most BBSs have standard procedures for acquiring new files. They get them
- from other boards, new programs are uploaded by users, etc. This is good
- because most authors cannot afford to mail disks or upload files to
- thousands of BBSs. However, some BBSs prefer to obtain programs directly
- from the authors. If you would like to obtain programs directly from us,
- automatically, then please help us to cover the cost.
-
- If your BBS would like to receive automatic upgrades to any of our
- products, directly from us, then please refer to the information below.
- Due to the time and expense we are generally unable to upload directly to
- a large number of Bulletin Board Systems. However, we are able to mail
- updates on disk (in a sealed envelope) to many BBS's.
-
- If your BBS would like to receive automatic updates then please take
- advantage of our BBS Update Program. Under this program you can receive
- updates for an entire year for only $10 per program (this helps to offset
- our costs).
-
- To receive updates, simply send us a letter with the name and address of
- your BBS, your mailing address, the name of the person we may contact
- (preferably the SYSOP or CO-SYSOP), the program (or programs) for which
- you would like to receive updates, and a check or money order for $10 for
- each program (for countries outside of North America please add an
- additional $10 per program). Payment in U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank
- only, please.
-
- The BBS Update Program is available for the following products (as of
- December, 1993):
-
- TROOP TRACKER
- PACK TRACKER
- SHIP TRACKER
- MERIT BADGE TRACKER
- TRAINING TRACKER
- PARTY TRACKER
- GS TROOP TRACKER
- ARCHIVE TRACKER
-
- NOTE: All BBS's participating in our BBS Update Program will automatically
- receive any NEW programs which we may release while their BBS Update
- Program is in effect.
-
- The BBS Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses in
- those cases where a BBS desires to obtain the program directly from us. If
- you have other standard ways to obtain programs, then you may prefer not
- to use our BBS Update Program. Please refer to DESCRIBE.DOC for our
- mailing address and phone number. Thank you for your support!
