| Document: FSC-0090, Attachment A | Version: 001 | Date: 9 December, 1995 | Supercedes: FSC-0022, revision 3 | | Originally by Bob Hartman, Jim Long, and Randy Bush | modified by Rick Moore | modified by David Nugent, 3:632/348, 21-Jul-1993 | modified by David Nugent, 3:632/348@fidonet, 9-Dec-1995 Application for an FTSC Product Code This is an application for an FTSC product code, which is used to identify your product when used in FidoNet, and providing a means by which you can be contacted should your product be found responsible for problems encountered during its use. The issuance of this product code in no way implies authorisation or approval of your product for use on the network, only provides a means of ready identification. See the attached document for usage of FTSC product codes in fts-0001 packets and mailer sessions, and other enhanced FidoNet protocols. As of 9th December, 1995, this application should be submitted only by developers of products with FTS-0006 (YooHoo) and/or FSC-0056 (EMSI) capability. This application should be completed and submitted for only `real' and completed products which will be used by FidoNet systems. If you are currently developing a product which is not yet ready for use on the network out of experimental stage, use product code 0 (zero) which is, by convention, reserved for this purpose. Please answer the questions as accurately and completely as possible. We need to know what will actually be used on the net, so describe only the current product, and leave future features and plans for the comments section. Send the completed form via FidoNet mail to the chair of the FidoNet Technical Standards Committee at its designated address, preferably in the form of a FidoNet file attach. This address may change from time to time, but will be listed in the administrative section of the nodelist in one of the FidoNet zones (typically marked "FTSC_Chair" or "Fido_Tech_Stand"). As of the date this document was last updated, this address is 3:3/20. We hope that you will take the time to revise your answers by submitting updates as your product changes. A summary of the information you provide is compiled into a list of all product codes published and updated periodically by the FTSC called "FTSCPROD.DOC". Thank you for your cooperation, FidoNet Technical Standards Committee Chair --- Cut along here ------------------------------------------------- Type of application 1.
