The official business of the ASP and an ongoing daily discussion takes
place on CompuServe (CI$ - whoops, CIS). If you are not familiar with
CIS, it is a large pay service with telephone ties to almost all major
cities in the world. It is a pay-by-the-minute service with a small
monthly minimum. That is the downside; the upside is that the telephone
toll charges are very low and the amount of information available about
shareware is tremendous. There are virtually dozens of shareware authors
discussing lots of interesting issues every day.
If you are not a CIS subscriber you can get a FREE sign-up kit with a
$15 credit by calling
800-848-8199
or 614-457-0822 and asking for Operator 162.
The Operator 162 is a special code for this offer available through the
ASP.
Once on CIS do a GO SHARE to get to the ASP activities which take
place on the IBM PCjr forum.
The sections you will find of interest are:
8 Shareware Issues
9 Potential Authors
10 ASP Assoc. Members (this is for disk vendor and BBS discussions)
11 ASP Non-business
12 ASP Business
The command OFF will get you out of CIS at any time.
