UPGRADE.POLICY
==============


This note announces my upgrade policy for the audio routines disk, 
effective as of June 1, 1987.  This policy is subject to change
without notice.


1. This disk contains the source code that appears in the AmigaWorld
   article, modified so that it compiles and runs successfully under
   both Lattice C, V3.10 and Manx C, V3.4a (with patch version 1.3
   installed.)

   This disk also contains the text of the article as originally
   submitted to AmigaWorld.

   It was my understanding that the July/August issue would appear
   on the stands and in the subscribers hands somewhere near July 1.
   I therefore expected to have a bit more time available to create
   the upgrades that I wrote about in the article.  But alas, the
   issue got to me (and you, it seems) on June 1st.

   If you are an original purchaser, directly from DATAPATH.
   to avoid having anyone wait, I have sent you this disk now.
   Your name is on a mailing list to receive the first upgrade
   free.  This upgrade will be mailed to you automatically
   sometime near July 1, 1987.  (This policy is in effect for
   purchases made before July 1, 1987.  If the upgrade itself
   should become available before that time, the upgrade will
   be sent instead of this disk and this notice will not appear
   in the upgrade policy statement).

   Folks who have obtained this disk through other public domain
   channels can obtain upgrades to the disk materials as described
   below.

2. Future Upgrades:

   I will be implementing as many of the suggestions as I already
   have received as possible, particularly those mentioned at the
   end of the article.  Additionally, I expect that the article will
   generate a lot more suggestions and questions.

   I welcome both suggestions and source code that you might work up, 
   using this code and its data structures as a base.   If you
   submit source code, please let me know if it is acceptable
   to release it to the public domain.   

   Any source code submitted will be appropriately acknowledged. 
   (You can become famous!)   If you use source code
   from somewhere, please let me know where it came from so we can
   all rest easily regarding its usability for public consumption.

   I will take all that I receive and try to organize it 
   appropriately, and mold it into a consistent package.


   -------------

   To receive the next upgrade, send me a blank diskette with a label
   on which you have printed your complete mailing address.  With
   the blank diskette, please also send me a check for $5.00
   to cover the disk duplication, and the mailing expenses.
   Foreign orders please add $2.00.

   With each upgrade, (which will not happen any more often than
   6-8 week intervals), I will announce what kind of upgrade
   you might expect the next time.  Then you can decide if
   you want to send in another blank disk and upgrade fee
   pending the next release.
