- ***I actively encourage the distribution of the archive in its original,
- unmodified state (except for archive type conversion) to other BBS
- systems. If you upload it to a board that isn't hooked into this echo,
- please leave a message for the SysOp to let them know what you've
- sent. Ask them (politely) to read it and respond (if they have
- comments) through you or by calling one of the systems listed in the
- report and posting their comments.
-
- My thanks go out to all who have made this report a reality (with the
- exception of the hackers who made the report a necessity, of course). The
- report is not "my" report: rather, it's a report _from_ me _to_ you, based
- on your posts in FidoNet and other networks. Thanks for your support, and
- for helping to keep shareware clean!
