    Straight Talk with readers


(C) KVAZAR



   After the release of 16-th number of "Polesie", in
Received it a lot of feedback from our
readers. In general, the letters came to
Fido, but there were those who sent
to us by ordinary mail. Frankly, we
were pleasantly surprised by this unexpected
burst of activity of the people, the more that
reviews were almost all positive,
that on the one hand pleases, and the other guards, for someone 
who, as we no longer other known their own shortcomings,

miscalculations and mistakes. But in any case, we
wish to express our sincere appreciation to
address all those who wrote to us, and let
several lines. None of your letter did not
was ignored. We will carefully consider all your wishes and try 
to take them into account when issuing the next room ...


   Because it's quite a lot of letters,
we are simply unable to respond to each individually, and even 
more so, their publish. But we decided to release this

a small FAQ, the most common questions readers, so it will be 
more reasonable and will not leave unanswered.


Q: Why is there no new episodes after the 16 th?
A: Well, if you're reading this, then the 17 th still left. 
Just in    bear a variety of circumstances that hinder the 
work: Denial of CPA    Dhu two computers (Speccy and PC), a 
chronic shortage of free    the free time, different sides of 
the issue. 

Q: Who is responsible for the release of the newspaper?
A: Officially, three, actually one person. Monarch draws for

   We schedule on the screen saver, and Eazy - our main sysop, 
ensuring    wetting contact with the outside world at ZXNet.


Q: What is at work on the next number is the greatest

   problem?
A: The understanding in information retrieval. Very difficult 
to find fresh information    mation from a trusted source, and 
promptly submit it to the reader. 

   Occasionally there and annoying incidents, we have to publish

   rebuttal. Also a big headache is searching th
   zykalnogo support. Often, to find a suitable

   Mouzon go to a specific number of days.

Q: Who wrote the music for you?
A: None. All the music from first to last number is taken from

   personal collection editor where big set

   obscure songs, at least known
   GOVERNMENTAL people. I am frankly envious of his colleagues 
from Optron " 

   having such a great composer like Andrew Steeg
   nitsky. Its themes can be heard for hours ... Just before the

   exit this room, we got music from Fatal Snipe from

   Mogilev. That it sounds now.

Q: When do you get rid of this rotten shell?
A: Hmmm ... If there was a view of our old listalka FAST ZERO, 
then 

   starting with 11 rooms she had gone into oblivion, giving 
way to a steeper 

   and a perfect shell of Spectre. Now you can on the 
reliability    assess the dignity of our regular clothes.


Q: What is a "leaf" and how does it relate to "Polesie"?
About: The "Leaf" appeared about a year ago, first as a graph

   of BBS and a list of points G-Net. To date - this

   separate, independent Homel publication oriented
   towels, primarily on local news and network problems.

   Produces its Kostroma Dmitry - Eazy.

B: Why do not you release the magazine?
A: For the release of the full log is necessary constantly 
working 

   staff and much more free time than required

   for the newspaper. In addition, release dates next issue 
journals    LA increased in proportion to the volume of the 
latter. At this 

   moment when everything is kept on one person, it's just not
   really. Not so long ago, I put forward the idea of ​​uniting 
all the res    publikanskih publications, but little enthusiasm 
on the part of 

   the latter was observed.

Q: Why is the description of the new programs you do not 
publish information 

   Authors: The full names, addresses? ..
A: Why? In most cases, the authors of such programs without

   enough as it is known, they are easy to find on Fido, on the 
Internet in    ones. Often this information is unknown even the 
editorial board and 

   furthermore, its publication would last significant place.

B: It is necessary to publish more entertaining information ...
A: We do not think so. The newspaper primarily informational 
West    nick, though entertaining information is present in 
some but    mers (for this column are special), but litter


   its over-abundance of fiction we're not going.

Q: Is it true that you cooperate with the magazine "Radio 
amateur"? A: Yes, but so far limited to sending them to address 
several    FIR articles. I would like to develop this good 
trend that we 

   and offer to all comers help Speccy.

Q: Where on the Internet can find all the rooms of your 
newspaper? A: As far as we know they are in Minsk and Grodno


   sites Virtual Tr-Dos and Ascendancy. To the extent possible 
light    zhie issues in the fast fidoshnuyu ehokonferentsiyu 
ZX.SPECTRUM.
