Budgie UK Licenceware
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The programs on this disk used to be part of the Budgie UK Licenceware
scheme which ran from 1987 to 1994 and was well supported by authors, PD
Libraries and customers during that period. Due to a decline in the ST
market during 1994, combined with a lack of new titles appearing on the
Budgie label, it was decided that Budgie no longer had a future and the
majority of former Budgie UK titles reverted to Public Domain status
(rather than go out of circulation completely) from 1st December 1994 in the
interests of the ST community.
There now follows a copy of the letter sent to Budgie UK distributors during
November 1994.
****************************************************************************
After having consulted the senior members of the group, it has been decided
to end the Budgie licenceware scheme on December 1, 1994.
The last quarter requiring payment of royalties is therefore Sept/Oct/Nov
94.
Beyond that date, all Budgie titles will become Public Domain, unless a
particular author specifies otherwise.
Please send your cheques as soon as possible after Dec 1 so that the
operation may be wound up and all royalties distributed before the end of
the year. Many thanks.
Camy Maertens November 11, 1994
