This file contains rules and suggested bulletins for posting ASP information for the public per Article 3.1 of the ASP Approved BBS Standards. It is suggested that you make the following information available to your callers via a standard public bulletin such as the (B)ulletin command on Wildcat or PC Board systems. Much of the software available for downloading from this BBS is shareware. These systems require a payment to the author if found useful. Some shareware systems are produced by members of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP). The authors of these systems have promised to meet the association's standard of program quality and customer support. ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide technical support for members' products. Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442 or send a Compuserve message via easyplex to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536" Those systems that are produced by ASP members are identified in the file listings of this BBS by the symbol (substitute as necessary). You should NOT have any messages or bulletins stating "Please don't upload any copyrighted software" or having any similar mis-conceptions of shareware. Shareware is copyrighted software that is freely distributable with the author's specific expressed permission. You may place the following official logos of the ASP on your BBS screens and use it wherever applicable. _______ ____|__ | (r) --| | |------------------- | ____|__ | Association of | | |_| Shareware |__| o | Professionals -----| | |--------------------- |___|___| ASP Approved BBS The following logo is not printable on many printers but is better for screen displays.
