   |  |  |  |  | Goals |  |  |  |  | give contributors some feedback
     about the usefulness of programs/files that they
     develop |  |  |  |  |  | encourage more and better
     contributions |  |  |  |  |  | highlight particularly good
     contributions |  |  |  |  |  |  | Criteria for Voting |  |  |  |  | By voting "money" for a
     particular file (program), you are highlighting that program for other
     people to take notice of. You are also encouraging the author to maintain
     and improve that program. |  |  |  |  |  | We hope you will vote for
     programs, include files, and other files that you have found to be useful,
     well-documented, educational and of high quality. If you use an include
     file donated by someone else in one of your programs, we hope you will
     donate some money for that include file. |  |  |  |  |  | With each new calendar month you
     can vote $3.00 again, as you like. You can vote for the same
     program (file) again, or include some new ones, but we ask that you 
     not vote for the same program more than 3 months in a row without
     a break. |  |  |  |  |  | If we see obvious cases where 2
     people are voting the max for each other every month we will disallow
     it. |  |  |  |  |  | Your vote will be anonymous.
     Only you and RDS will know how you voted. RDS will not modify your vote
     in any way. |  |  |  |  |  | Since we are the 
     administrators of the system, RDS will not vote money
     towards any program, and you should not vote any money towards a program
     contributed by RDS (or Rob or Junko). |  |  |  |  |  | 
   |  |  |  |  | Some Rules |  |  |  |  | all qualified users are
     encouraged to vote $3.00 each month. For your convenience, you can submit
      this form right now, or simply send us
     e-mail at your convenience. |  |  |  |  |  | any file on the Recent User
     Contributions or Archive pages is eligible for donations. |  |  |  |  |  | if you don't vote your $3.00
     during a given calendar month, you lose it. You can't accumulate it over
     several months and then vote it all at once. |  |  |  |  |  | you are encouraged to divide up
     your $3.00 as you see fit. Donate it all for one program, or divide it up
     amongst several, but please don't pick more than 5 different programs at
     one time. example:
     For the month of June I vote:

      - zzzz by author p: 0.75
      - wwww by author p: 0.45
