Subj : Electronic publishing FDN welcomes your submissions To : all From : ep-fdn coordinator Date : Thu Dec 06 2007 05:47 am Hello all! I thought I'd take this opportunity to formally introduce the electronic publishing file distribution network to the fidonet community. THough an article about it authored by yours truly was published in fidonews many may not have seen it. so far the only traffic in this file echo has been that which I generated myself. Obviously, we're looking for contributions from the sysops and users out there in fidoland. You can see epsubmit.zip from the administrative area, ep-adm for complete guidelines on file submissions. AS you peruse the submission guidelines you'll note that I will not release pdf files into any of the ep-fdn echoes. there is no way that I can guarantee the legality of hatching such files, therefore I won't take pdf files for distribution under any circumstances. Another willing soul out there might wish to start an fdn or two for materials in pdf format. However, ep-fdn cannot accept pdf files for distribution. I have no way of reading them even were I to acquire acrobat reader for linux due to some technical barriers related to blindness and inherent in the pdf format itself. AS we must not violate international copyright rules and the various laws governing intellectual property throughout the world we ask that you read and comply with the submission guidelines contained in epsubmit.zip. IF there is a problem complying with them but you feel that a book or periodical would be of interest to the fido community, and it can be legally distributed in this manner contact me and we'll see what can be worked out.
