This file provides information for the distribution of
shareware copies of DRAFT CHOICE by Disk Vendors. Please note
that our policy on distribution of DRAFT CHOICE is the same for
both commercial vendors, non-profit user group libraries, and
educational institutions.
We require that you obtain written permission from us before
placing DRAFT CHOICE in any user group or commercial library,
unless you have been approved by the Association of Shareware
Professionals and have notified us that you wish to distribute
DRAFT CHOICE.
Please note that before we can send you a copy of DRAFT CHOICE
and give you permission to distribute it, we require that you
meet one of the following two conditions:
1. Send us a copy of your standard written materials
(catalogs, flyers, ads, etc.) which clearly explain the
shareware concept, the need for users to register shareware
products they use, and the fact that the price of your
disks, that the user pays to you, is a copying fee ONLY and
does not constitute payment for the product. The material
must also clearly differentiate between Shareware and
Public Domain software.
Note that it is not sufficient to tell us that you explain
these issues to customers in person, it must be clearly
reflected in your written materials.
2. Become an Approved Vendor of the Association of Shareware
Professionals (ASP). For more information on the ASP
vendor program, contact the ASP at:
Association of Shareware Professionals
Vendor Certification Committee
P.O. Box 5786
Bellevue, WA 98006
If you have not already done so, we strongly recommend that
you become an ASP approved vendor. The ASP vendor program
provides an important service for both authors and vendors,
and gives customers confidence that reasonable standards are
met in the distribution of shareware products.
We find it necessary to insist on meeting one of the two
conditions, stated above, in order to qualify for shareware
distribution of DRAFT CHOICE, due to widespread confusion about
shareware in the marketplace, and the occasionally troublesome
practices of some vendors. We look forward to working with you
in the future. Please feel free to contact us if you have any
questions or comments on our product or our policies.
You can contact us at any of the addresses below. Please mail
materials to us at the P.O. Box address.
