The Project Gutenberg Etext of LOC WORKSHOP ON ELECTRONIC TEXTS *****This file should be named locet10.txt or locet10.zip****** Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, locet11.txt VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, locet10a.txt This choice was made by popular demand for information on etexts as they are being moved away from Plain Vanilla ASCII and toward markup and graphical representation, as opposed to what you will see in this file, which is fairly good example of PVACSII.

We are deeply indebted to the Library of Congress for preparing, posting, and freely distributing this as Plain Vanilla ASCII.

Thanks to James Daly for his assistance in determing the work is not under copyright protection, on 2/27/93 as we were stymied as to how to release this work as soon as possible by 2/28/93.

This edition has many paragraphs reformatted to eliminate widows and orphans, a few typos corrected, and one adjective changed to a noun. Otherwise every word appears as it was in the original, which can be obtained if you:

ftp seq1.loc.gov login: anonymous passord: name@machine cd pubLibrary.of.Congress/research.guides/amer.memory ls -al (to see filenames) get filename.ext quit

WARNING: this machine was not functioning on weekends. Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)

We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The fifty hours is one conservative estimate for how long it we take to get any etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. This projected audience is one hundred million readers. If our value per text is nominally estimated at one dollar, then we produce 2 million dollars per hour; this year we will have to do four text files per month: thus upping our productivity from one million. The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away One Trillion Etext Files by the December 31, 2001. [10,000 x 100,000,000=Trillion] This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers, which is 10% of the expected number of computer users by the end of the year 2001.

**Information prepared by the Project Gutenberg legal advisor** (Three Pages)

****START**THE SMALL PRINT!**FOR PUBLIC DOMAIN ETEXTS**START****

Why is this “Small Print!” statement here? You know: lawyers. They tell us you might sue us if there is something wrong with your copy of this etext, even if you got it for free from someone other than us, and even if what’s wrong is not our fault. So, among other things, this “Small Print!” statement disclaims most of our liability to you. It also tells you how you can distribute copies of this etext if you want to.

BEFORE! YOU USE OR READ THIS ETEXT

By using or reading any part of this PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etext, you indicate that you understand, agree to and accept this “Small Print!” statement. If you do not, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for this etext by sending a request within 30 days of receiving it to the person you got it from. If you received this etext on a physical medium (such as a disk), you must return it with your request.

ABOUT PROJECT GUTENBERG-TM ETEXTS

This PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etext, like most PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etexts, is a “public domain” work distributed by Professor Michael S. Hart through the Project Gutenberg Association (the “Project”). Among other things, this means that no one owns a United States copyright on or for this work, so the Project (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without permission and without paying copyright royalties. Special rules, set forth below, apply if you wish to copy and distribute this etext under the Project’s “PROJECT GUTENBERG” trademark.

To create these etexts, the Project expends considerable efforts to identify, transcribe and proofread public domain works. Despite these efforts, the Project’s etexts and any medium they may be on may contain “Defects”. Among other things, Defects may take the form of incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other etext medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

DISCLAIMER

But for the “Right of Replacement or Refund” described below, [1] the Project (and any other party you may receive this etext from as a PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etext) disclaims all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal fees, and [2] YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE OR UNDER STRICT LIABILITY, OR FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY OR CONTRACT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

If you discover a Defect in this etext within 90 days of receiving it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending an explanatory note within that time to the person you received it from. If you received it on a physical medium, you must return it with your note, and such person may choose to alternatively give you a replacement copy. If you received it electronically, such person may choose to alternatively give you a second opportunity to receive it electronically.

THIS ETEXT IS OTHERWISE PROVIDED TO YOU “AS-IS”. NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARE MADE TO YOU AS TO THE ETEXT OR ANY MEDIUM IT MAY BE ON, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Some states do not allow disclaimers of implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of consequential damages, so the above disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you, and you may have other legal rights.

INDEMNITY

You will indemnify and hold the Project, its directors, officers, members and agents harmless from all liability, cost and expense, including legal fees, that arise from any distribution of this etext for which you are responsible, and from [1] any alteration, modification or addition to the etext for which you are responsible, or [2] any Defect.

DISTRIBUTION UNDER “PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm”

You may distribute copies of this etext electronically, or by disk, book or any other medium if you either delete this “Small Print!” and all other references to Project Gutenberg, or:

[1] Only give exact copies of it. Among other things, this requires that you do not remove, alter or modify the etext or

this “small print!” statement. You may however, if you

wish, distribute this etext in machine readable binary,

compressed, mark-up, or proprietary form, including any

form resulting from conversion by word processing or hypertext software, but only so long as EITHER:

 

[*] The etext, when displayed, is clearly readable. We

consider an etext not clearly readable if it

contains characters other than those intended by the

author of the work, although tilde (~), asterisk (*)

and underline (_) characters may be used to convey

punctuation intended by the author, and additional

characters may be used to indicate hypertext links.

 

[*] The etext may be readily converted by the reader at no

expense into plain ASCII, EBCDIC or equivalent form by

the program that displays the etext (as is the case,

for instance, with most word processors).

 

[*] You provide, or agree to also provide on request at no

additional cost, fee or expense, a copy of the etext

in its original plain ASCII form (or in EBCDIC or

other equivalent proprietary form).

[2] Honor the etext refund and replacement provisions of this

“Small Print!” statement.

[3] Pay a trademark license fee of 20% (twenty percent) of the

net profits you derive from distributing this etext under

the trademark, determined in accordance with generally

accepted accounting practices. The license fee:

 

[*] Is required only if you derive such profits. In

distributing under our trademark, you incur no

obligation to charge money or earn profits for your

distribution.

 

[*] Shall be paid to “Project Gutenberg Association /

Illinois Benedictine College” (or to such other person

as the Project Gutenberg Association may direct)

within the 60 days following each date you prepare (or

were legally required to prepare) your year-end tax

return with respect to your income for that year.

WHAT IF YOU WANT TO SEND MONEY EVEN IF YOU DON’T HAVE TO?

The Project gratefully accepts contributions in money, time, scanning machines, OCR software, public domain etexts, royalty free copyright licenses, and every other sort of contribution you can think of. Money should be paid to “Project Gutenberg Association / Illinois Benedictine College”.
