Essentially, the OpenDoors Distribution Network is a list of "official" OpenDoors distribution sites that will be distributed with future versions of OpenDoors, and anyone is welcome to participate. The idea behind the "OpenDoors distribution network" is simply to make it easier for you, the OpenDoors programmer, to obtain OpenDoors updates. While the newest version of OpenDoors is always available from the OpenDoors Support BBS, and often from any system carrying the "Programmer's Distribution Network", most OpenDoors programmers would find it useful to know of a system closer to them where the newest version of OpenDoors is always available. Although I would like to be able to send the newest version of OpenDoors to any support site, the cost of doing so unfortunately makes this impossible. However, it is likely that you would pick up the newest version of OpenDoors when it is available anyhow, so this shouldn't really make any difference. So, if you are interested in becoming an official OpenDoors distribution site, simply fill in the form below, and send it to me, either electronically or by conventional mail at one of the addresses listed at the end of this file.
