NEMESIS 1.10 VENDOR INFORMATION
SHAREWARE VERSION
Last Updated Dezember 1992
Copyright Robert Hoerner and Christian Sy
──────────────────────────────────────────────
This file provides information for shareware disk vendors and user
groups on the distribution of NEMESIS
We are glad to work with you in the distribution of our product, as user
groups and disk vendors are an important part of the shareware distribu-
tion system.
We do require that you obtain written permission from us before placing
NEMESIS or any part of the NEMESIS package in any shareware or other disk
library, or distributing shareware copies for a fee in any way.
This permission won't be given for free ! The general case is that share-
ware vendors make money with the disk distribution fees. That's ok, but
as our registration fee is very low ($15 / 25 DM), many customers won't
understand why they should pay these additional $15 if they received
their package from you for about $10 or more ! And we didn't write this
program only for the benefit of the shareware vendors.
So if you want to add NEMESIS to your library, we expect you to
make us an adequate offer of how much you are willing to pay for this
right. There are several possibilities: you can
a) offer a unique payment. If we accept it, you will receive
a paper from us which gives you the right to add the actual and all
future versions of NEMESIS to your library, after we received the
money. Whenever there's a new release, you will get it directly from
us (and from nowhere else !).
b) acquire the distribution-right for only one version
c) acquire the distribution-right for more than one version
If you are interested, please fill in the file OFFER.TXT
The amount of the payment of course depends on the size of your
company and on the above payment method you choose. If you think there is
no reason why you should pay us (because you don't profit much from the
distribution), don't mind writing us, and we will think about it.
The distribution-right can and will of course be given to more than
one company, it is not exclusive !
Add in any case your standard written materials or catalogues so
that we can verify your propositions !
If you aren't an approved ASP vendor or a non-profit user group, before
we can send you a copy of NEMESIS and give you permission to distribute it
we need you to send us a copy of your standard written materials (cata-
logs / flyers) which clearly explain the shareware concept, the REQUIRE-
MENT that users 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.
We aren't concerned with what language you use or how concise or de-
tailed the information is, but it must explain these basic concepts or
we will not be confident that users are fully informed about what they
are (and are not) purchasing.
It is not sufficient to state that you explain these issues to customers
in person, it must be reflected in your written materials.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this policy may cause you, but we
have found it to be necessary due to widespread confusion in the
marketplace and the occasionally troublesome practices of some vendors.
We look forward to working with you in the future, and please feel free
to contact us if you have any questions or comments on our product or
our policies.
