[I'm cross-posting to comp.sys.amiga since this applies to amiga binaries
as well.]

To reduce the amount of binaries on the net, and to enhance the usefulness of
what's posted, I propose the following scoring system:

	All submissions have a base score of 0.

	Sources accompany submission:  +10
	Public domain (as opposed to free copyrighted): +5
	Binary < 20K:  +5
	Binary < 50K:  +3 (a 10K binary has a score of +5, not +8)

	Binary > 100K:  -3
	Binary > 150K:  -5
	Shareware:  -5
	Demo of commercial program:  -10

Each submission is given a score, and placed in the posting queue based on that
score.  The higher the score, the sooner it gets posted.  Small things aren't
clobbered nearly as often as larger programs, and programs with sources are
much more useful, so we should encourage these submissions.  Big shareware or
commercial demos would most likely never get posted, due to things jumping
ahead of them in line.  The Mac and Amiga are hard enough to learn to program;
the until-recent dearth of example Mac sources didn't help.

These, of course, are rough guidelines; since moderators are intelligent humans,
they can modify scores to their own tastes or for special considerations (if
everyone is asking for it, it should be posted to reduce request clutter).

On the other hand, people could port GNU CC to the Amiga & Mac, then we could
do away with binaries entirely. :-)

Well, what do y'all think?
