- AllFix Beta-Team Application Form
- ─────────────────────────────────
-
- Beta testers are very important to the development of software
- packages. New features and changes need to be tested exhaustively
- before a new version can be released.
-
- A beta team, however, cannot be too large. Many new options need to
- be developed in secret for several different reasons, such as
- possible effects to third party software and to keep an edge on the
- competition.
-
- The ALLFIX Beta team has about 60 members who dilligently test a
- new beta version once every week. The beta testers have to meet
- certain requirements. The most important ones are, that they be
- thorough and dependable. A good beta tester is one who tries out
- the new options and if a mistake is detected, attempts to determine
- what the cause could be. This information is crucial to the developer.
-
- Because there are more people interested in joining the beta team
- than there are positions available, this beta team application form
- was created. This will give us a pool of interested and eligible
- systems in which to fill any vacancies in the Beta Team.
-
- Please fill out the following form to the best of your ability. We
- need people running systems of all types and configurations and with
- different requirements. Therefore, do not exagerate the capabilities
- of your system. When an opening does appear, a suitable system will
- be offered the position.
-
- Rename the application form to NNNNDDDD.PPP where NNNN is your net,
- DDDD your node number, and PPP your point number.
-
- For example if your node number is 1:234/5, the form would be renamed
-
- 0234005.000
-
- If you are located in a different zone than the beta coordinator you
- are applying to, then the PPP should be Z## (Zone Number) with the
- point numbers being left out. For example 6:789/0 would be...
-
- 07890000.Z06
-
- Send the form direct (ie. via crash mail, because routed
- applications will not be accepted) as a file-attach to one of the
- following beta team coordinators:
-
- ALLFIX for Dos:
-
- Harald Harms 2:281/910 Europe
