Its members, all of whom subscribe to a code of ethics, are committed to the concept of shareware as a method of marketing. It is also the group that serves the shareware community by identifying and finding shareware authors who make exceptional software.
Members also help each other by giving each other advice and tips for making better shareware.
The Elite Shareware Authors Group was founded on August, 1996. Our purpose is to encourage programmers to write freeware and keep alive the hobby side of all this. Periodically we issue suggestions for programs we see a need for. Then we work with authors to debug the programs and get a bug-free finished product. Our FreeHOF BBS is the distribution point.
