About !Allocate
---------------

The !Allocate application is a general purpose application for submitting
allocation request to Acorn.  In the past there have been three applications
that cover the following :-

        !Request  -    filetype request
        !Reserve  -    name reservations
        !Allocate -    general allocations (SWI Chunks, Error blocks etc...)
        
!Allocate combines all the above types of allocations into one application. 

Please read !Allocate.!Help for more information on using !Allocate.

Pineapple Software are pleased to announce that they have been contracted to
provide registration services for unique system resources (ie SWIs,
filetypes etc etc) to the developer community.

Using the service
-----------------

You do not need send in/email the whole copy of !Allocate; just the data
file that it produces.

When !Allocate is first set up the user fills in details about their
organisation. Registered Developers should ensure that their number does
appear in the appropriate field, and Foundation Members should put their
Foundation membership number in this field. 

We accept allocation requests by email or post - details below.

Please note that only the contact details below should be used. In particular
please note that telephone allocations or allocation enquiries are NOT
provided.
