don@CS.UMD.EDU (Don Hopkins) (11/06/89)
This is the table of contents of the NeWS software collection I've put
together, which is available via anonymous ftp from "tumtum.cs.umd.edu"
(128.8.128.49), in the files "NeWS/news-tape.tar.Z" and
"NeWS/GoodNeWS1.2.DEV.tar.Z". Don't forget to set binary mode to retrieve
them! The file "sums" lists the checksums of the files you can ftp. This
collection of software will be made available on the Sun User Group
contributed software tape. Enclosed at the end is a SUG contribution form.
If you have any software that you would like to donate, or if some of your
software is already in the collection, but you have not sent in a form, we
would *greatly* appreciate it if you printed out a copy of the form, filled
it out, and mailed it in. Also, it makes things a lot easier for everyone if
you put a copyright notice on your software stating that it can be
redistributed. Thanks a *zillion* to everyone who contributed!!
If you have an old preliminary copy of the news-tape directory, you should
probably get a fresh one. Lots of nice stuff has been added, and the
organizaton has changed (everything has its own directory now, and the names
make more sense). If you're making an old copy of the collection available
via ftp or whatever, please get the updated version, and thanks!!
The news-tape directory is almost 10 meg, without binaries. It includes
makefiles so you can compile and clean it all at once. GoodNeWS is about 7.5
meg. If you're looking for some good examples of how to program NeWS, they're
in there!

Subject: Sun User Group contribution form
We are putting together a collection of NeWS software to contribute to
the Sun Users Group donated software tape. We would like to use your
software on upcoming tape(s). To do this, we have to get a signed
release from you that authorizes us to have the software and to
reproduce and distribute it. We apologize for the trouble involved;
we've tried to make this as painless as possible, within the
limitations of the current legal system.
We have enclosed a copy of the software contribution form, which you
can print out, fill in, sign, and mail to us. A mailing "label" is
also enclosed. Don't send it back to us by email; we need your real
hardcopy signature.
Our lawyers advise us that if you developed these materials in
connection with your job, or as an independent contractor working on a
job, the materials may be owned by your employer or client. If this is
the case, or if you are not sure, either clarify the situation or
duplicate the contribution form and have your employer or client fill
out a copy too. We can't distribute software if we don't know who the
owner is, unless all the possible owners authorize us.
By the way, "owner" is roughly equivalent to "copyright holder" here.
If you developed the materials with other people, please get your
co-authors to sign release forms as well, unless you are authorized
to act for the group. If your work is based upon the work of others,
please indicate how we can get in touch with them.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact Don
Hopkins at ...!uunet!mimsy!don, don@brillig.umd.edu, or (301)
454-1517, or the Sun Users Group office at ...!sun!users,
users@sun.com, or (415) 336-4343.
Thanks for your patience with this BS. See you on the tape!
