GIGO REGISTRATION INFORMATION
GIGO is not free - a lot of time and money went into making this product.
Writing GIGO directly costs me us$200-300 in phone bills each month, as
well as many hours of my time. (GIGO source code is now approximately
13000 lines, plus several thousand lines for the various utils,
some of which source code is even included for further
enhancements and custom modifications by you.
DO NOT register GIGO until you are happy that it is running. The worst it
will do is remind you to register every eight thousand messages that you
gate. If you are just starting to set it up, chances are you are not going
to move that much mail; those reminders won't be that often.
If, however, you do have a stable gateway set up with GIGO, please, register
it! I'm only asking for us$20. And, I'm even willing to barter, send me a
message if you can offer me alternative goods or services.
There are several levels of registration; _YOU_ decide which one you
qualify under. I only expect people to use the Commercial Registration
in environments where the company deems it as neccessary; if you are
running the gateway for personal reasons, at a commercial site, you may
choose the registration level deemed appropriate to you.
o Normal Registration: us$20
This level of registration will give you email support, as well
as netmail. More than 2-3 replies via crash netmail will result
in replies being left on hold instead of crashed, as Imy phone
bills are too high to carry on extended conversations with
people. If you're willing to pay for the long distance (voice
or data), I'll give happy to give you support. My voice number
is available via directory assistance and on request.
o Extended Registration: us$20+ [negotiable]
Same as above, except that I'm willing to call you or carry on
extended crashmail conversations, etc. The [negotiable] part
is to cover my phone costs. Ie, if the [netotiable] part is $20,
almost 3 hours of phone time will be paid for. It's easier if
you just pay me the us$20, and call me directly, or let me call
you collect. This method is just an option for me to crashmail
back answers to you sooner instead of you having to poll me, etc.
In reality, this option is the same as Normal Registration,
except it gives (me/us) the flexibility to return mail
immediately, or call voice, etc, without having to worry about
running up my phone bill.
This method of registration is fairly popular.
o Commercial Registration: us$99
For this amount, I'll mail you:
o Serialized floppy disk
o Printed manual and sample configs
o Certificate of registration
Telephone support
On-site setup and configuration options negotiable
Updates are free via email to site administrator
Please inquire via email to see if packaging etc are
ready; at this time, it is not available. Anyone who
does register at this time, will be shipped materials
when they are made availabe; the key, however, will
be shipped immediately via crashmail, email, or whatever
method is desired. (Sorry, no smoke signals!)
o Feature Requests
If the feature is only going to be useful for your site, it will
depend on the size of the hack needed to perform your request.
Call me or email me to discuss details. Generally, I'm cheap. =O
If the feature is deemed as useful to everyone, and I have time
to put it on my agenda, the feature will be free. I have so far
been willing to incorporate most of the ideas passed my way.
Only one person has had to bribe me to put in key features for
his site so far. ;-)
To register, send your check or money order (in US funds) to:
Jason Fesler
2405 Carta Court #4
Sacramento CA 95825 USA
Bank checks *MUST* be drawn on US funds, on a US bank. Period. It costs
me ~$25 to collect on a check that is drawn from outside the country, and
takes a few weeks. If you can not get a check drawn from a US bank, I
encourage you to use the credit card method instead; the added advantage
being that they will take care of the currency exchange for you.
Please be sure to include your site name (the MYSITE variable in your config
files), as well as your complete email address. I will email your key
information to you.
--- FOR CREDIT CARD ORDERS ---
I have made arrangements with a local merchant to handle credit card orders.
I will need the following information for ordering by VISA or MASTERCARD:
Billing Name
Card Number
Expiration
Email address
MYSITE variable
VOICE Phone Number for verification
Authorization for "The Record Place BBS" to charge US$20
Average turn-around will be 12-96 hours, depending on timing. Credit
cards are not processed over weekends, holidays, etc, as this is a
business that will be processing the credit transactions on my behalf.
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ IMPORTANT! │
│ │
│ You can send me your credit card one of the following ways │
│ ONLY. Please do not use alternate methods, as it is not │
│ worth the risk of someone getting your card number! │
│ │
│ o Direct/Crash Fidonet Netmail (1:203/7707, 1-916-483-8486) │
│ o PGP encryped email (be sure to include your public key!) │
│ + Do not use PGP'd routed netmail; that's against fido policy │
│ o Voice communication via telephone (number avail on request) │
│ │
│ These tips are for _your_ protection.. You don't want other │
│ people to have your credit card number! │
