Subject: author13.zip List of email addresses of MsDos PD & SW authors

Fri 8-Jan-93: I have updated my list of the email addresses of the
PD & shareware MsDos authors. The list is now availabe from us as
  16213 Jan  8 14:14 garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/pd2/author13.zip
The list now contains 89 authors including an updated email address
for PKWARE. 

The number of the authors on the list has been steadily growing, but
not quite at the rate I had hoped for.  The problem, you see, is
that the users of the MsDos FTP archives often wish to contact the
authors, and it would be nice to have up-to-date information in one
place in a fairly standard format. 

General information to the authors
----------------------------------

If you are an MsDos utility PD or SW author who wishes to get
included on this list you are most welcome email me with the full
information. Please note that your program(s) should be reasonably
well established and must be non-trivial to merit an inclusion on
this list.

You must have a sufficiently stable email address that is reachable
on or from InterNet. For example authors without an InterNet address
but with a Compuserve address are reachable from InterNet. You can
send me email from Compuserve by applying send to
">INTERNET:ts@uwasa.fi".

Your program should preferably fall within the eligible
garbo.uwasa.fi MsDos PD & SW categories. In practice this means that
the addresses of the authors of (solely) recreational games are not
solicited. I am hoping that someone else would take it upon
him/herself to compile a similar list for games and/or Windows
authors.

We naturally hope that you will keep us up to date about the updates
of your program if it is on garbo.uwasa.fi archives. This is not,
however, a precondition for the inclusion of your information.

The file garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/UPLOAD.INF has information on uploading
to our MsDos FTP archives. If you wish to have it and you do not
know how to go about getting it, you are most welcome to email me
for further informatiuon.

If you for some reason should later wish your name to be removed
from this list, please just let me know then.


On the information to be entered
--------------------------------

 - Please fill in.  That way the possibility of me making errors
   is diminished.
 - This is above all an address list.  Therefore the "Program:" line
   should have your major or preferred product including a suitable
   description in a manner that does not exceed column 68 on the
   single line reserved for this purpose.  (Thus only one line).
 - Yet, if possible, be specific about your product.  Rather than
   just stating e.g.
    Program: GISMO
   you might want to state
    Program: GISMO Global International Simulator MOdelling utilities
 - When you kindly fill this in for me, please do not use tabs, and
   start from column 13 as the ruler indicates.
 - Fill in just one "sheet". Do not send in several. If you have
   many products, please choose.
 - If you are correcting or changing an entry I already have, please
   be sure to fill in all the items, nevertheless.  Not just the
   changed one.
 - I have to retain full rights to choose and edit the submitted
   entries.
