Conference rules for the RA_32BIT echo: rev. 5 Oct 97 Posting Frequency: 1st and 15th of the month. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: Until the development of RA/32 starts back up, this echo will be used to discuss operating RA under 32bit operating systems. I'm not going to go thru the rules one by one changing them. So far the echo has been running fine and i see no reason to ruin a good thing ... Please stay tuned... 1. This conference is available to any SYSOP who is genuinely interested in using and discussing RemoteAccess/32 in all it's possible flavors. Discussions may range from general overviews to technical and programmer oriented details. There may be source code posted but this is not a programming echo so we'll try to keep anything like that to a minimum. 2. This conference may be gated to any other amateur mail networks, provided that: a) We are notified of the name of the network and gating system, b) All messages posted here contain a valid origin line and sufficient information to allow a reply via NetMail through "normal" channels. 3. Any topic that relates RemoteAccess/32 may be discussed unless it has been specifically declared "off topic" by us. 4. FLAMES OF ANY KIND ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT PERMITTED. This includes any OS wars or anything that may lead to OS wars. 5. Third party developers are welcome to participate in discussions about their utilities and their possible interfaces into RemoteAccess/32 provided that the utility specifically supports RemoteAccess, and its interface to same. (The INTERFACE to RA is topical: the actual configuring of the utility is not) 6. For all intents and purposes, the rules for technical content of EchoMail as defined in BB_PROCD.A01 are adopted for use in this echo. BB_PROCD.A01 defines a TEARLINE as not exceeding 35 characters containing only "packer" OR editor program information, an ORIGINLINE as not exceeding 79 characters including the required ending of a proper network address, and prohibits the use of characters above ASCII 127 and non-printable, low-order codes. (See BB_PROCD.A01, file requestable at 1:170/400 for further details) 7. Multi-line signatures, multi-line "tag lines", and multiple origin lines (other than those created by proper gating) are disallowed. They tend to only increase the cost of moving this and other echos around the world, and it is our view that they would be much more appropriate in local echos. 8. We reserve the right to be steel-fisted bastards and deny specific individuals posting access to this conference if the individual repeatedly ignores requests to terminate a message thread or continues to violate one or more of the echo rules. 9. Do as you would be done by, and don't take yourself too seriously. Remember, we're doing this for FUN! Mark Lewis, 1:3634/12, wkitty42@alltel.net Conference Moderator
