I hope Robert will forgive me for borrowing his guidelines. They say
imitation is the sincerest for of flattery though. Hope he's flattered ;-)

Most of this is blatant plagerising of Robert Hayden's original post. I
have changed the parts that needed to be changed so that it refers to the
TECH book as opposed to the TomeOSA

SHARPER IMAGE CATALOG OF 2054 * (Name subject to change)
(submission registration guidelines)


In an effort to make cataloging all of the submissions for the TECH
project easier, I am going to attempt to keep a 'registration database'.
This is simply an archive of short files that provide an overview of each
of the submissions, so that when it comes time to determine what is or
isn't suitable for the project, everyone can make a decision if need be
based only on the shorter overview, and not be forced to read the lengthy
files.

To maintain conformity, the registration has three fields that need to
be filled out. An example form is provided and when you submit your form,
you should use a format that is similiar.

EXAMPLE FORM

SUBMISSION: ARTICLE: Cybernetic Demographic Information
DESIGNER: Dylan Northrup
E-Mail: norhtup@*****.cas.usf.edu

DESCRIPTION: This article discusses the relative distribution of
cyberware among the population of North America.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Submission = Simply a title for your document. If it is a article, label
it as such. Vehicles, Matrix applications, cyber, etc should
also be properly labeled.

Designer = Your REAL name. A submission CANNOT be accepted without an
author. (And besides you want all that fame and glory, right?)

E-Mail = An email address of the author, if available.

Description = A simple overview of your submissions. It can be as short
as one word or a couple of paragraphs. The purpose of this
is to give the reviewers a quick idea of what the entry
is.

----------------------------------------------------------

All submissions should be mailed to Dylan Northrup
<norhtup@*****.cas.usf.edu> where they will be archived and categorized.
After about a month of collecting, perhaps around mid to late August, the
task of selecting those things for the final project will begin.

Details of that process will be made available as that time gets closer
(and as soon as I figure out what the process is).
