+ 386BSD RELEASE 0.1
+ BUG AND FIX REPORT FORM
+
+
+ 386BSD is an experimental research system intended for
+exploration and study. The inclusion of source code allows
+the creative and industrious student of operating systems to
+modify, correct, augment and otherwise alter the system in
+any manner desired. Due to the "free" nature of 386BSD
+Release 0.1, we cannot provide "on-demand" support.
+
+ We do encourage feedback, however, on bug fixes, prob-
+lems and solutions which arise during configuration, and
+improvements to 386BSD. These changes will be incorporated
+back into the system, and made available once again to the
+386BSD audience, to further encourage use of this system.
+
+ Please complete this bug and fix report and return to:

+ "Tiny 386BSD"
+ and the
+ DDJ Careware Program:
+
+ Making A Difference
+
+ William Jolitz

+
+
+_\bW_\bh_\ba_\bt _\bi_\bs _\bC_\ba_\br_\be_\bw_\ba_\br_\be?
+
+ For several years now, the editors of _\bD_\br. _\bD_\bo_\bb_\bb_\bs _\bJ_\bo_\bu_\br_\bn_\ba_\bl
+have overseen a charity program called _\bC_\ba_\br_\be_\bw_\ba_\br_\be. Careware,
+in a nutshell, is a way to "give back" something to those
+less fortunate in our community, and, at the same time,
+obtain a copy of a popular piece of software featured in the
+magazine -- simply by stuffing a dollar or two in your
+floppy mailer for a local charity! It's that easy.
+
+ Now, as part of the DDJ Careware Program, we are making
+available to the editors of DDJ the latest version of our
+"Tiny 386BSD" installation floppy. Even though we have made
+this software freely available -- with no contribution
+required for the use of 386BSD -- we hope that the 386BSD
+User Community will choose to participate in this charity
+drive and help the children aided by the _\bC_\bh_\bi_\bl_\bd_\br_\be_\bn'_\bs _\bS_\bu_\bp_\bp_\bo_\br_\bt
+_\bL_\be_\ba_\bg_\bu_\be _\bo_\bf _\bt_\bh_\be _\bE_\ba_\bs_\bt _\bB_\ba_\by.
+
+_\bW_\bh_\ba_\bt _\bi_\bs _\bt_\bh_\be _\bC_\bh_\bi_\bl_\bd_\br_\be_\bn'_\bs _\bS_\bu_\bp_\bp_\bo_\br_\bt _\bL_\be_\ba_\bg_\bu_\be?
+
+ In this age of "fiscal austerity", many small community
+organizations -- especially those working with children --
+have been hard-hit by state and local budget cuts. The CSL
+is a volunteer organization which is solely dedicated to
+raising funds for small local agencies which help needy
+children. Some of the agencies which have received funds
+from CSL in the past include those using computers to com-
+municate with disabled children, providing respite weekends
+for abused children, counciling bereaved children, and set-
+ting up safe after-school play areas for children in impo-
+verished neighborhoods.
+
+ Simply put, by sending a dollar or two along with your
+software request, you directly benefit a child. Even if it
+is only a dollar, it does make a difference.

+
+ To get a labeled copy of "Tiny 386BSD", send a high-
+density error-free formatted floppy (either 3.5-inch or
+5.25-inch) and a SASE mailer to:

+
+While there is no obligation to participate, if you would
+like to help a disadvantaged child, just include a dollar or
+two (or more, if you so desire) in your mailer and we'll
+make sure it gets to the Children's Support League. (If you
+send a check, please make it payable to the "Children's Sup-
+port League of the East Bay").

+
+ Thanks to the generous and enthusiastic response of the
+D-Flat C-library users and and X-Sharp 3-D Graphics users,
+the DDJ Careware Project has helped hundreds of people
+throughout the country.
+
+ While a dollar or two may seem like a trivial amount,
+it does add up. The Brevard County Food Bank in Florida has
+received over $3,000 in the past year alone from supportive
+users of D-Flat, and the Vermont Association for the Blind
+and Visually Disabled has received over $100 in the past
+month from X-Sharp users. For these charities, a dollar or
+two has made a difference!
+
+ Now it's our turn. Just like the generous users of D-
+Flat and X-Sharp, we believe that each person in the 386BSD
+User Community is quite willing to meet the challenge and
+help a child. We know that a dollar or two from 386BSD
+users can make a difference as well. The choice, however,
+is yours.

+
+Many people and firms have provided hardware and/or money to
+try and keep this unfunded project going despite a recession
+and hard times -- usually by digging into their own pockets.
+Each of these contributors gave, not only because they
+believed that the continuation of 386BSD is vital to the
+health of the research, educational, and development commun-
+ities, but also because they realize that an individual can
+and does make a difference!
+
+Without the help of the people listed here, this release
+would simply not have been possible. We would especially
+like to thank Thos Sumner, whose loan of a 486/50 SCSI PC
+made development go more rapidly. The rest of the 386BSD
+user community should make special note of all these people
+and firms and commend them for their generosity and
+foresight.
+
+We hope that their leadership and vision will serve as shin-
+ing examples to the entire 386BSD user community, and serve
+to encourage others to actively participate in 386BSD.

+The following people have contributed key software programs,
+modules and fixes, including novel work and ports of popular
+public domain user programs. Some of this software was
+directly contributed to us, while other items were made
+available to all users via the network. Occasionally,
+several people came up with a variety of approaches for a
+single item. In this instance, we tried to choose the one
+which we felt would best serve the rest of the 386BSD user
+base for this release. However, the creativity and persever-
+ance of all the software contributors trying to make 386BSD
+better for the entire 386BSD user community was consider-
+able. Each individual effort is worthy of pride.
+
+We wish to personally thank all of these people, as they
+have helped make 386BSD Release 0.1 a reality. We hope that
+these contributors and all the rest of the 386BSD user com-
+munity will continue to actively participate to make future
+releases even better!

+
+ 386BSD is intended by the developer to be used for edu-
+cational and research purposes. As such, the developer of
+this release is making it available to the user at no
+charge, in order to encourage and facilitate its use in
+research and education. However, 386BSD has been a costly
+product to develop and maintain, and each release consumes
+enormous resources.
+
+ Release 0.0, the first complete freely available
+release of BSD for the 386/486 PC, was completed entirely as
+a personal project. 386BSD Release 0.1, the second release
+of a complete 386BSD system, was motivated primarily due to
+the enthusiasm and contributions of the Release 0.0 user
+base.
+
+ In sum, 386BSD has taken over four years of personal
+financing on the part of the developers to get it out to the
+user. Unfortunately, we are not funded by any granting
+agency, university, corporation, or non-profit company.
+
+ If you like 386BSD, you may elect to make a contribu-
+tion to defray the cost of development and to demonstrate
+support of this project. If just 10% of the number of peo-
+ple using 386BSD out there right now sent in $100 each, this
+project would be adequately funded for the next two years!

+ 386BSD RELEASE 0.1
+ SOFTWARE CONTRIBUTION FORM
+
+
+ We are always pleased to look at enhancements, addi-
+tions or ports of public domain software for possible incor-
+poration into 386BSD releases. However, all contributed
+software must contain the following items:
+
+1. The author's name, date, and copyright (if any). If a
+ modification of a public-domain work, modification
+ attribution and original author.
+
+2. A brief description of the software module or item.
+
+3. The following statement: "This software contains, to
+ the best of my knowledge, no proprietary, trade secret,
+ or otherwise encumbered code. I am making this
+ software available for incorporation into 386BSD,
+ understanding that 386BSD is a freely redistributable
+ and modifiable system."
+
+ In addition, the software should be in the following
+format:
+
+1. Release number upon which generated (0.0, 0.1, etc).
+
+2. Source code. Generated binary.
+
+3. List of known bugs.
+
+ 386BSD is a freely available work. All developers sub-
+mitting software for official 386BSD releases should be
+aware of this fact. Given the extremely wide distribution of
+this software, we cannot regulate or enforce specific usage,
+license, or proprietary restrictions, nor can we collect any
+monies or fees for use. Those developers who wish to
+encumber their software in this manner should find other
+mechanisms for distribution.
+
+ We will not review or accept any code which is marked
+"proprietary" or "trade secret".
+
+ We suggest that copyrights (or copylefts) not be made
+too "encumbering" in order to encourage usage, enhancements,
+and modifications of the submitted software. (For a sug-
+gested copyright format, we suggest the University of Cali-
+fornia copyright format.)
+
+ Due to constraints on distribution size, research
+directions, and number of submissions, we cannot guarantee
+that any particular piece of software will be incorporated
+into the next release. However, we always encourage people
+
+
+386BSD SOFTWARE.FORM 1 July 1992
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+to make their software available to other 386BSD Users via
+the network and user groups. That way, a large number of
+people can immediately benefit from your software and pro-
+vide critical feedback for enhancements and refinements.
+
+ Please complete this software contribution form and
+return it along with your software contribution to:
