Hello fellows!
|
|
|
|
This is the final concept of the german ebook releasing standards. Ebooks developed into a whole new independent section which grew out of 0DAY.
|
|
So it's time for a new set of rules for the german ebook scene which define this section.
|
|
Groups who want to sign, feel free to do so.
|
|
If english-releasing groups are willed to follow these rules, they are also welcome. If more international groups will decide
|
|
to follow these rules and who decide to pre into the EBOOK section, a new discussion about these rules are inevitable.
|
|
|
|
|
