CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS FOR THE BIG GREEN CD

Have you written software, either public domain,
shareware, or demonstration versions of commercial
software that you want to reach more of the NeXT
community? If so, we at Skylee Press want to work with you
to include it on the upcoming release of the Big Green CD.  

In 1990, Lighthouse Design introduced the First
Compilation Disk (later called the Big Green Disk), a
collection of fully redistributable public domain and
shareware software on a NeXT magneto-optical disk. In
August 1991, Skylee Press assumed its production,
updating its contents and expanding its size to fill a
double-sided disk.

Now that NeXT Computer has committed to shipping
NeXTSTEP 3.0 on CD-ROM, we will be moving the Big Green
Disk to CD which we intend to ship concurrently with
NeXTSTEP 3.0. The disk will be primarily for people
without net access so that they too can tap into the
resources of the NeXT programming community.

COPYRIGHTS
You will maintain copyright over your software unless
you have explicitly revoked your copyright. Skylee
Press will hold no copyright over material you have
written. Rather, we will hold a copyright over the
arrangement of the data on the CD-ROM which
distinguishes the compilation as unique.

FOR MORE INFORMATION
For guidelines on what and how to submit, send a message to
bgcd-guide@skylee.com (for plain text) or
bgcd-guide-next@skylee.com (for NeXTmail).
Information on what and how to submit will be sent to you
automatically (please be sure your return address is
valid).

For general information about the disk, send a message to
bgcd-info@skylee.com (for plain ASCII) or
bgcd-info-next@skylee.com (for NeXTmail).
