- Foreword
- ========
-
- Welcome to QCopy v5.1 ! Before we get to the "fine print" we would like
- to state our distribution conditions in general terms. We believe in the
- shareware concept and whether you are a disk vendor, BBS sysop, CD-ROM
- distributor, YOU do the marketing for us, so we do not want to place any
- undue restrictions upon you. All we ask for is that you maximize our
- possibility to obtain registrations. This means that you do not play with
- the files, either omit or amend them. You DO NOT have to contact us
- first, but we would appreciate a card so that we can log you into our
- data base and keep you up to date with the latest versions. Better
- still, drop us a line on Compuserve (Louis Mandel 70302,557), or Internet
- 70302.557@compuserve.com with your mailing address and we will put you on
- our update list. And now to the fine print.
