Thus, in the 12th issue was published ZxNews draft statute
was created as Peter computer network.
And immediately after the numbers, the editors began to call
the readers by offering make certain amendments, giving advice
and new ideas.
Certainly would not want to say that
the project failed on all 100 ... Say, do not
quite a success ... : (
Not everything was understandable and accessible to explain
some points have been overlooked, everything turned out too
hard and confusing especially for a beginner, experienced the
same fidoshniki found some semantic errors, such
such as "... the right of the moderator to delete msg from the
echo area ...", etc.
But the project - by then he had a project that, when

So I corrected him. Little ...
DRAFT CHARTER OmegaNet.
v2.0
Chapter I.
-------
General Provisions.
The computer network created for OmegaNet
communication sinkleristov Petersburg between themselves and
with other towns and villages with by any modems, servers,
stations, maintenance of bbs, included in this network.
The main directions of this communication
are: exchange programs and correspondence.
Since most prevalent in the city were Vicomm-compatible
modems, this type of modem and accepted as a "point
reference.
In general, the network - free, that does not interfere with
the individual operators to enter the payment on their stations
for the elevated level of access, for example.
To participate in the network can any sinklerist, without any
kind of limitation, the type of modem that supports at-least
one of the bbs.
For the standard software support adopted terminalka "MMD",
which, among a number of other possibilities, allows us to take
/ pass directory of the drive.
On this principle, and based the entire work
network. User calls to the station, enters the password (name
type is not necessary), and, depending on the level of access
gets access to certain files that are available on the drive
(s) server.
As servers are encouraged to use any ZX with RAM not less
than 256 kilobytes.
Chapter II.
--------
The hierarchy of the network.
Item 1.
========
The network.
In OmegaNet consists entirely of independent
bbs, "masters" which are the sysops. A network of these
stations in the united only to their users to engage in
correspondence with each other.
Item 2.
========
Moderator.
Develops and monitors compliance with the rules of the echo
area, which he moderated. If a user repeatedly breaks
these rules, the moderator can it "punish" until disconnection
from the bbs aria (Read only). Moderator has the right to
delete msg from the echo area.
Item 3.
========
That's the whole hierarchy of ...
Chapter III.
---------
Registration and work on the bbs.
Item 1.
========
On how to register and work
with bbs, written in "Memo to the new network user OmegaNet"
(see article in this same issue).
This memo is taken as standard and displays all the "details"
of the stations bbs. Text content from one version to
server program may vary.
Item 2.
========
Address. Mail.
The address is:
KKK / NN.PP,
where the KKK - the city code, NN - Node (station
bbs), PP - Pointer (user bbs). Each user
OmegaNet is Pointer, ie has
his personal address on the network.
Exchange system for almost as long as worked out and will be
published in a little ZxNews later.
Item 3.
========
Access levels.
On the drive where the server program is available in
the presence of a file-descriptor level, as well as
file with a list of users bbs in the form:
| Password | level |.
The file-descriptor level sysop specifies which files to
include what level.
For example, there are three programs: Bomber,
STS 4 and the Academy. Sysop can fix them
all at the same level:
8. Bomber.Z, STS 4.Z, Academy.Z,
and maybe a few levels:
1. Bomber.Z
8. STS 4.Z
12. Academy.Z.
If Academy.Z try to download the user with
9th level of access, then he has nothing
out, and if the 12th and above - please ... But Bomber is
available even to the beginner. :)
Most files are in the mode offline. Ie they do not exist on
disk, but they are in Station directory.
Server Software just as well as
"MMD", controls the line. All actions
user'a recorded in the log, which the operator can then see.
This is somewhat simplifies the sending of letters sysop: scored
directly on the keyboard while working with
station message, and he read it in the morning
in log'e.
Chapter IV.
--------
Violations and penalties.
Bbs sysop each decides to let or
do not let this user'a to his station, and sets him access
levels on your own.
Chapter V.

Other ...
Item 1.
========
Meeting sisopov.
Meeting sisopov held as necessary to address any issues
related to the network, as well as just to hang out ...
Date hangouts published in ZxNews in razadele "Network News".
At a meeting of sisopov not necessarily

or their representatives. Do not want to come - do not. Without
you all decide, without you will drink beer, well, there all
sorts of women, Then again, beer, and then again women ...:)
Item 2.
