III.    How to Become a Distributor Site

	Excel Progs is looking for more bulletin boards and information 
	services to serve as distributor sites.  This works well for both 
	parties:  Excel Progs is able to send its software to a larger 
	audience, and your service has more to advertise about.  Your users 
	know that the latest in Excel Progs utilities, songs, and games 
	can be found first on your service.  

	Excel Progs is accepting applications on the basis of "first come, 
	first serve."  There will be one distributor site per county.  A 
	"county" is described in this text as a place which holds a telephone 
	connection to your service for the public (i.e., if you have a service
	in Knox County (Knoxville, TN) which has an Anderson County (Oak Ridge,
	TN) connect line open only to members, your site will be considered to
	be an Knox Co. site ONLY.  If the line becomes public and no site has 
	already appeared in Anderson Co., you will be considered to be a 
	site for both counties.

	Excel Progs shall have the sole task of determining whether two or more
	services are considered "too close" to both become distribution sites.

	We are asking for services that have been up for at least a year, 
	show promise of being up for much longer, and have potential for 
	growth.  If your service goes down for a small period of time you 
	will retain your site number when you return; in cases of serious
	down-time the site number may be awarded to someone else.  Thus, it 
	is imperative that if your service goes down for a time greater 
	than a month or if it is to go down permanently that you immediately 
	contact Andrew Malek of Excel Progs.

	We are looking for "family" services.  Note that this does not mean 
	exclusively religious services, just those that don't cater 
	exclusively to adult users.  This also does not exclude services that 
	responsibly have adult sections hidden to the general public.

	We are looking for public domain/shareware/freeware/post-cardware/
	..etc services ONLY!  If you are a pirate site or hold ANY pirate 
        files, then we appreciate you not applying.

        Please note that the question "Are you PD/Shareware ONLY?" may be
        somewhat misleading.  The question is there to verify that only
        bulletin boards with public domain/shareware/freeware software are
        allowed to become distribution sites.  Some bulletin boards allow
        software to be purchased and downloaded online; thus, that software
        is purchased and not free, but is purchased legally and would not
        change an otherwise "YES" answer to "NO."

        Excel Progs is currently an organization, not an official business.
        In the event Excel Progs formally is established as a business, your
        distributor site numbers shall be transfered in the proper ways, if
        necessary.

	As a distributor site, you need to keep up with the newest Excel
	Progs products.  We ask that you call Idaho Interactive BBS at least
	once every 3-6 months, and, if you wish, in the meantime, acquire
	all Excel Progs products at your convenience from sources such as 
	CompuServe (C) and Internet FTP sites, where they are uploaded
	on a semi-regular basis (Feel free to call Idaho Interactive
	as often as you wish...the 3-6 months is only a suggestion for
	software acquisition).  If you run Major BBS with Majornet, we
	ask that you take the official support forum (mentioned later in
	this file).  We also ask all sites to mention that they are a support
	board in opening screens, bulletins, advertisements,..etc, if
	possible.
		
	Regarding Idaho Interactive BBS, you will receive an account 
	and password regarding your formal confirmation (when you receive 
        postal or e-mail regarding the confirmation).  ALL Excel Progs files 
	shall be on Idaho Interactive BBS in the file area EXCEPROG.  Just 
	type L F S EXCELPROGS to access the files.  Type F S EXCEPROG to
	access the forum area.  You may download individual files or download
	the entire batch as the EPALLx.ZIP files (all such downloads are
        free from time restrictions!)  If for some unknown reason Idaho
        Interactive ceases to exist, Excel Progs will try all possible
        routes of establishing a new home board or new methods of
        distributing its files.

	To apply, simply print and fill out the form located near the end of 
	this text and mail to the address specified.  Or, fill it out
	electronically and send it via Internet electronic mail.  Upon
	approval, you shall receive in the coming weeks your confirmation
	letter, number, and other information Excel Progs feels appropriate.
