[net.micro.pc] Free Program Library Policy

GILLMANN%USC-ISIB@sri-unix.UUCP (11/30/83)

From:  Dick Gillmann <GILLMANN@USC-ISIB>

After some input from Bill Brackenridge and Bill Westfield, I have
been convinced to back off a little on the sources/public domain only
policy.  The new guidelines for the free program library are as
follows:

1.  The program must be truly free, with no fee or contribution
    of any kind required or requested.

2.  We favor programs in source code form, but object code is
    acceptable if the program is useful and there is no
    commercial connection.

3.  The program does not necessarily have to be in the public domain,
    but INFO-IBMPC and USC-ISI take no responsibility to enforce
    any restrictions on the use or redistribution of the program.
