Prices have changed since the previous release, first because now
the NON-commercial users also must pay for a license, second because
the US dollar has a very low transfer rate.
Copyrights and Licence Agreement
────────────────────────────────
- Users of the MTS-package must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
- The MTS-package is supplied as is. The author disclaims all
warranties, expressed or implied, including, without limitation,
the warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any purpose.
The author assumes no liability for damages, direct or consequential,
which may result from the use of the MTS-package;
- The MTS-package is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge
to the user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends,
but please do not give it away altered or as part of another system.
The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal
computer users with quality software without high prices, and yet to
provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop new products.
- If you find this program useful and find that you are using and
continue the use of the MTS-package after a 30 days trial period,
you must register the MTS-package as described below;
- Non-commercial users will get a license for the usage of MTS by
sending a postcard or letter as registration. Non-commercial users
are FREE to use MTS on their system(s) without paying any fee. A
'closed BBS' (a BBS where users have to pay for using the BBS) is
NOT a non-commercial user;
- Closed BBS's (a BBS where you have to pay to get access to the
BBS) can get a Closed-BBS license for a small amount of money.
All users that are registered before April 1th 1991 (postcards,
letters or NetMail received by me before April 1th 1991) and that
run a Closed BBS, get their license for free. See below;
- Commercial usage of MTS will cost somewhat more. A company using
MTS needs a commercial licence. See below;
- The registration of the MTS-package will licence ONE copy for use on
any computer at any one time, as long as the usage confirms to the
type of registration you have done (so NON-commercial usage when you
have a non-commercial licence);
- Anyone distributing the MTS-package for any kind of remuneration must
first contact the Author at the address above for authorization.
- You are encouraged to pass a copy of the MTS-package along to your
friends for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their
copy if they find that they can use it;
- Support on MTS, is available by means of written letters or by
entering the international echomaol area DISP;
- Problems and suggestions can be entered in the FidoNet <tm> Echomail
conference <tm> called DISP (international). Entering this echo does
not exclude you of the duty to register the MTS-package, though users
who evaluate the product can enter the echo for questions;
- The MTS-package, all programs, the documentation and support-files is
copyrighted 1991 by Robert W. van Hoeven, PO. Box 131, Badhoevedorp
1170AC, Holland. All rights are reserved. You may copy this package
for backup purposes. Also you may copy and share unmodified copies of
the whole package, providing that the copyright notice is reproduced
and included on all copies.
Excluded from this statement are the support-files written by other
authors. Please refer to the documentation of these programs for
copyrights and licence agreements;
- It is forbidden to modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, de-
compile and/or disassemble the software in the MTS-package. Patching
the medium at places that carry the software is seen as a program
change and is also forbidden;
- Performing any of the illegal actions as stated in the previous
lines, is a theft and no fair play to the author and, more important,
to the registered users;
- Bulletin Board Systems that distribute the MTS package can convert
the WHOLE package to any archive-system they like but all original
files must be included in the new archive. The MTS-package on the
Bulletin Board can contain at the most 2 extra files. These files
can only be a commercial for that Bulletin Board and/or validation
data that is presented as a service to all users and shall have no
other functions;
- After the normal trial period of 30 days, you must register the soft-
ware (see REGISTER.MTS) or you must remove it from your PC;
- Comments, suggestions and bug reports are welcome and will be answered
as soon I have the time to do so. You can send me a letter of leave a
NetMail <tm> message named to Rob Van.hoeven (mind the point) on node
2:512/100 (RA Support, Monster, Holland, SysOp is Reinier de Groot).
When you want to send me normal mail, address it to:
Robert W. van Hoeven, PO. Box 131, 1171 AC Badhoevedorp, Holland;
Also you can enter messages in the FidoNet <tm> DISP Echomail <tm>

Registration information
────────────────────────────────────
There are several ways to register the usage of the MTS-package. All
is depending on the environment where MTS will be running.
NON-Commercial registration
────────────────────────────────────
When you use MTS in a non-commercial environment, the registration is
simple and cheap if you consider all the time I have put into this
product. As NON-commercial user, you must only send a postcard or a
letter, stating that you use MTS, to the supplied address. There is
no registration fee for NON-commercial usage. After I have received
the card, you have (automatically):
- The license for running ONE copy of the MTS-package in a
NON-commercial environment on any computer at any one time;
- The license for NON-commercial usage can not be used in any other
environment than the NON-commercial environment itself. Upgrading
to a commercial license or to a license for a closed BBS can be
done by paying the difference in price between the current license
and the new license;
The license does NOT include any update service as described later.
Closed-BBS registration
────────────────────────────────────
When you use MTS on a closed BBS (a BBS where users have to pay to
get access to all the BBS functions), you must pay a small amount
of money for a license.
Payment of the registration fee, entitles you to:
- The license for running ONE copy of the MTS-package in a so called
Closed-BBS environment on one computer at any one time;
- A diskette with the latest copy of the MTS-package on 5 1/4 or
3 1/2 inch diskette (360/720 Kb) with a program to patch the
name into any version of MTS, thus showing to your users that
they are working with a licensed version of MTS;
- The license for a 'closed' BBS can not be used in any other commer-
cial environment than the BBS itself. Upgrading to a 'normal' com-
mercial license can be done by paying the difference in price;
The license does NOT include any update service as described later.
The price for a Closed-BBS license is US $ 10,--.
Commercial registration
────────────────────────────────────
When you use MTS in a commercial environment, you must also pau for
a license to use MTS.
Payment of the registration fee, entitles you to:
- The license for running ONE copy of the MTS-package in a commercial
environment on any computer at any one time;
- A diskette with the latest copy of the MTS-package on 5 1/4 or
3 1/2 inch diskette (360/720 Kb) with a program to patch the
name into any version of MTS, thus showing to your users that
they are working with a licensed version of MTS;
The license does NOT include any update service as described later.
The price for a commercial license is US $ 50,--.
Update service
────────────────────────────────────
Both paying AND non-paying registerd users can enter the update ser-
vice. International users who use MTS will benefit most of this
feature. Paying the fee for update service, entitles you to:
- Receiving every new release (minor AND major) for the period of
one year or 10 releases (which ever comes first) on diskette
media by first-class Airmail;
- The updates will be send the same day the new release is submitted
to the support BBS (2:512/100 in Holland);
- The diskettes are first-class (no no-name or white diskettes) and
will contain a special diskette label;
The price for update service is US $ 15,-- for 5 1/2 inch (360Kb) dis-
kettes and US $ 20,-- for 3 1/2 inch (720Kb) diskettes.
Paying
────────────────────────────────────
- By postal money order or international money order. Normal cheques
(if they are not EuroCheques) will cost me extra money to transfer,
so add US $ 10,-- for transfer if you use such a cheque. Cheques
that can not be collected within a reasonable time, are returned to
the sender;
- EuroCheque written out on :
- Robert W. van Hoeven
Badhoevedorp PLEASE READ EURO_CH.ME!
- Giro-cheques (only dutch) written out to the name above;
- Sending money directly, but please make sure you send it with
some kind of safety, so you can make sure yourself that I received
the money. When you send money, you can also send money in your
own currency, but make sure to use a valid exchange rate. This is
the exchange rate on the day you send the money to me;
In NO way I can accept credit-card transfers. If you are not sure,
please contact me by normal mail !
Dutch users can also pay in dutch money. Transfer the amount of dutch
money in one of the above ways. Use the exchange rate on the day of
transfer as found in the newspaper of that day).
