- PERMISSION TO DISTRIBUTE
- ========================
-
- Our sending this disk to you and the letter that accompanies it
- constitutes the approval of Bowen Software for your distribution of
- PopDBF as part of your shareware library. If you have obtained this
- from another source, (not directly from Bowen Software), please write
- or call for our explicit permission. We further ask that you send us
- a copy of your standard written materials (catalogs or flyers) which
- clearly explain the shareware concept, the need for users to register
- products they use, and the fact that the price of your disks is a
- copying fee only and does not constitute payment for the product. The
- material must also differentiate between shareware and public domain
- software.
-
- You may distribute PopDBF as is. That is, on one disk with all files
- in an uncompressed format. Optionally, you may distribute them on one
- disk using a compression format such as the ZIP format. If using the
- later method, you MUST leave the READ.ME and VENDOR.DOC files in an
- uncompressed format. Regardless of distribution method, you MUST
- distribute all the files together.

-
- If you are not already a member, we strongly recommend that you
- consider becoming an Approved Vendor of the Association of Shareware
- Professionals (ASP). For more information on the ASP vendor program,
- contact the ASP at:

- Vendor Certification Committee
- P.O. Box 5786

-
- The ASP vendor program reduces the workload for both authors and
- vendors, and helps give customers confidence that reasonable standards
- are met in the distribution of shareware products.
