2. Limited Distribution License
-------------------------------
As the exclusive copyright holder for EDDY, John Scofield authorizes
distribution only in accordance with the following restrictions:

BBSs and ASP Approved Vendor members in good standing are hereby given
permission to distribute EDDY. Non-ASP member vendors must request
permission prior to distributing this package.

The EDDY package -- including all related program and documentation
files -- CANNOT be modified in any way and MUST be distributed as a
complete package, with the following specific exceptions:

Many BBSs customarily add a small text file (advertisement) to
each archived file. This text file describes the BBS and tells
people that the file was downloaded from that particular BBS.
Other BBSs add a small one-line message with their BBS name and
phone number into the compressed file, which will display when
the file is uncompressed. Either of these methods of
mentioning your BBS are acceptable and may be used, provided
the package is otherwise unmodified and complete.

Small additions to the package, such as the introductory or
installation batch files used by many shareware disk vendors,
are acceptable.

The EDDY package cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.

You may not list any of our products in advertisements, catalogs, or
other literature which describes our products as "FREE" or "PUBLIC
DOMAIN" software. Shareware is "Try-Before-You-Buy" software; it is NOT
free, and it IS copyrighted. It is most certainly NOT public domain.

No price or other compensation may be charged for EDDY. A reasonable
fee may be charged to cover the actual costs of the distribution media,
shipping and handling.

4. Disk Set Distribution
------------------------
EDDY CANNOT be sold as part of some other inclusive package. Nor can it
be included in any commercial software packaging offer, without a
written agreement from the author.

ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing who wish to
distribute EDDY as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or
a CD-ROM package) may do so if all the other restrictions are met.

Others (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute EDDY as part of a
collection must obtain permission from the author prior to beginning
such a distribution.

If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other collection,
please check the release date of the version you have. If the version
is over six (6) months old then please contact the author to ensure that
you have the most current version.


5. Subscription Distribution
----------------------------
If you would like to distribute the EDDY package as a Disk-of-the-Month,
or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the following
restrictions apply:

ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby given
permission to distribute the EDDY package under the Disk-of-the-Month
style of distribution.

Others (non-ASP Members) must contact us in advance to ensure that you
have the most current version of the software.

You cannot use a Disk-of-the-Month distribution to use up your inventory
of old (out of date) disks. Only current versions may be shipped as
Disk-of-the-Month disks.

The User's Guide (as contained in the EDDY.DOC file) may not be
reproduced in PRINTED (hardcopy) form, in whole or in part, using any
