DESKTOP PUBLISHERS' BBS LIST
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The following boards are fully desktop oriented, or are known to have desktop
publishing sections with files and/or clip art for download. Some have a
message base or conference(s) devoted to desktop publishing.
This listing includes updates received as of April 1, 1992 (hence the 03 in the
filename). Updates are generally issued on a monthly basis, depending on my
deadlines and other time constraints. If you note any errors or omissions,
please leave me a message in one of the many echo conferences, preferably in
the PubNet or LaserPub Conference (Fido), the Desktop Publishing echo (GT), or
the DTP conference (SmartNet). Alternatively, info can be mailed to me at 10626
Samaga Drive, Oakton, VA 22124 or voiced to 703/281-9601.
Please feel free to upload this list to other boards you may visit. It's nice
and small and certainly won't hurt your upload credits on boards that count
such things. Also, the better the distribution of this list, the better the
information in future editions will be.
The Usual Disclaimer: By request, I am including descriptions of board
offerings where available (i.e., conferences, file specialties, etc.). In doing
this, however, I must emphasize that the correctness of this list lies with
those who contribute information to it. I have neither the time (or the money)
to personally verify the status of each of these boards. All I have is the
desire to help those in the desktop community help each other.
Thanks!
Frank Atlee

NOTES
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
(1) Both the International Publishers Exchange and PUBNET--its international
BBS network--continue to grow. For more information on the network and what
conferences are currently available, see the accompanying file, PUBNET.TXT, or
dial up one of the member boards (noted above with an asterisk).
(2) In addition to the regular Windows and DesqView conferences, which carry
general discussions of these two popular applications, many SmartNet boards are
now carrying the net's new Windows 3 and DesqView Applications Programming
Interface (API) conferences.
Windows 3 (API) is for discussions of Windows applications, while Windows
3 (Novice) is specifically for new user discussions of problems and solutions
with Windows itself. DesqView (API) is for discussions of DesqView
applications, while DesqView X Windows is for the yet-to-be-released (now in
beta testing) DesqView product called DV X-Windows. This is an X-Windows type
interface that runs under DesqView, like the UNIX X-Windows interface.
I'll be updating this list as I have time to include the new echoes in the
various SmartNet board listings. Thanks to sysop Chip Chapman at The Technical
Hangout for the clarification.
(3) Please note that beginning with last month's list, boards whose name begin
with "The" are no longer automatically alphabetized under T. This is simply
because a sysop may not always use "The" in front of the board's name, a
situation that has too often led to double listings. Thus, boards are now
listed by the proper name--i.e., The Aloha BBS in Hawaii is listed under A as
Aloha BBS (The).
