This text file describes the BBS and tells people that the file was downloaded from that particular BBS. Other BBSs add a small one- line message with their BBS name and phone number into the compressed file, which will display when the file is uncompressed. Either of these methods of mentioning your BBS are acceptable and may be used, provided the program and documentation is otherwise unmodified and complete. o You may not list any of our products in advertisements, bulletins, file listings, or other literature which describes our products as "FREE SOFTWARE".
