Path: digifix!not-for-mail From: sanguish@digifix.com Newsgroups: comp.sys.next.announce Subject: Submission Guidelines Date: 19 Oct 1993 00:34:22 -0400 Organization: Next Announcements Lines: 69 Approved: sanguish@digifix.com Message-ID: <29vqoe$sli@digifix.digifix.com> Goal: To be the primary location for the release of all official information from Next, third party developers, user-groups and Next trade shows. This is a big job, and it will require the cooperation of submitters and readers alike. I will strive to post announcements within a 24 hour period of receiving them. There is an auto-reply daemon set up that will inform you of the receipt of your message. Guidelines Try to keep submissions short and concise (80-100 lines max). Include full instructions on contacting you (where applicable) All Postings e-mail address telephone (optional) Press Release toll-free voice phone toll-free fax voice phone fax phone mailing address info@blahblah.com retail price educational price availability Software available ftp site full path to file supported CPU's for binary distributions OS version requirements Meeting Announcements location of meeting time of meeting speakers expected .sig files will be deleted automatically, so please don't rely on your .sig for the contact information Please double check all information you are posting for accuracy. If you are announcing software available by FTP, make sure the copy on the archive site is good. Announcements of sales or specials not appropriate for comp.sys.next.announce. If you are unsure about a submission, ask. Press releases are more effective if there is more technical information and less marketing fluff. Many times an announcement should coincide with a specific date, for example the starting of NextWorld Expo. Unfortunately, that can be the worst time for you to get access to your internet connection to send the announcements to comp.sys.next.announce. In order to make comp.sys.next.announce as timely as possible, I will accept "post-dated" announcements for release on a specific future date. All information will be kept confidential until the requested release date, and NDAs will be signed where required to ensure this. Hopefully this will make these announcements arrive at users sites as quickly as if you posted them directly to comp.sys.next.whatever. Submissions can be sent to next-announce@digifix.com. Questions and comments to next-announce-request@digifix.com
