- Author Submissions
- ------------------
-
- If you have written a program that you would like to see appear in the
- library, I encourage you to submit it on disk directly to me, along with a
- letter indicating you would like to see it included in the library.
-
- Submission Format
- -----------------
-
- You can increase the chances of your submission being accepted by
- following a few simple guidelines:
-
- Don't submit bootable disks or disks with any other proprietary material
- included, since I then have to go examine each file to decide if it is
- distributable or not, and if not, what effect removing it might have.
-
- Organize the distribution in a manner similar to the library disk
- organization. I.E., place all files related to a particular program under
- a single directory on the disk. If there is more than one program per
- disk, place each one in its own directory.
-
- Try to write a simple entry for the "Contents" listing that summarizes
- your submission. It should be about 3-10 lines, and include the current
- version number, the version and disk number of the most recent version (if
- any) that was last included in the library, whether or not source is
- included, and an "Author" list.
-
- Ensure that your submission will run correctly from its subdirectory and
- that it does not depend upon the name of the disk. If necessary, supply a
- script runable from workbench (via IconX) that makes all necessary
- assigns, copies fonts and libraries, etc, or better yet, use the standard
- Commodore installer program.

-
- Shareware
- ---------
-
- The preferred method for shareware to be included in the library is for it
- to be submitted directly by the author. However, shareware acquired from
- other sources (such as third party submissions or electronic services such
- as BIX or People Link) will be considered if it appears that the author
- wishes it to be widely distributed and there are no specific prohibitions
- against inclusion in libraries such as this one. The intent is not to
- exclude shareware received from other sources, but simply to ensure that
- the author has no objections to its inclusion.
