So then, you won't mind uploading it to a public share where we can all download it without providing an email address?
Otherwise, no, it's NOT free - the cost is getting your email address added to their phishing database.

By your point...your message isn't even free. I had to burn calories, energy (computer), oxygen and numerous other things just to read it. But, feel _free_ to keep on posting your points that you charge so heavily for.

Apparently I’m up tomorrow. I wasn’t expecting to solve one because I haven’t even worked the what daily CCC title stands for yet . WSO? CCC – “cryptic crossword clue”? (club?), OTD - “on this day”. I'm pleading the lateness of the hour here in my time zone.
Yes I’m very new to this. I only started looking at the daily CCC’s about a month or so ago and I’ve found they have become quite addictive and lots of fun.
I know that you only have four hours to solve the puzzle, but are there any other rules/guidelines I should be aware of?

Winner Stays On (used on some pool tables in UK pubs: the winner of a game stays on to play the next guy.)
Cryptic Crossword Clue
Of The Day
Posted normally between 08:00 and 09:00 UTC (so I think that's 19:00 to 20:00 in Canberra / Sydney?) and lasts for four hours from the moment you post it.
Try thinking of a word, and break it down: see if you can get anything that might make a sentence if you quint at it a bit!
For example, a recent one of mine: I started with the solution: ASSASSIN and saw three word: ASS, ASS, and IN.
IN is easy: "Trendy, fashionable, ..."
ASS has many meanings: "Idiot, to move fast (as in 'haul ass'), sure (as in 'bet your ass'), a donkey, the bit you sit on."
Take two meanings for ASS: "bottom" and "Donkey", one for "IN": "trendy", the defintion: "killer", and some punctuation to mislead people with and you get:
Bottom donkey - trendy killer (8)"
So try it: pick a word!
Just try not to overthink it: if it gets too long, it may not be solved!
If it is solved, the solver gets to set the next. If not, you get to try again. Three unsolved in a row from the same setter, and it reverts to the person who set the clue they solved.
That's pretty much it for the rules!

"Winner Stays On" was used on Foosball tables in UK pubs, long before a pool table ever landed on these shores. They then stole our space and our WSO rule. Hopefully, one day someone will realise that, (just like Grey Squirrels), they are a serious threat to our way of life!

We are in discussion with a external company for an integration request.
The external company's services are built as a closed-ended product with no intention for 3rd party integrations. But now they've agreed to open up the services through APIs.
We have reached the understanding at the management level and now I'm supposed to write the requirements. Can I call this as an RFC? I'm just wondering it make sense to call this as an "RFC" when the product is external, belonging to some other company.
Don't want them to feel like
Please suggest.

Call it RFEC - Request for External Company
|

I think this is what an RFC is (Request for Comments).
A Structured RFC Process[^]
I would look more at SDD - software design document or SRD - software requirements document for external companies, perhaps. You don't need a request document anymore since you already have a working agreement (I am guessing).
Edit: SRSD - software requirements specification document may also be of help: Software Requirements Specification (SRS Document) | Perforce[^]

It (and always was?) an RFP: Request For Proposal; in effect, asking someone for a "bid", recommendation, solution, something.
"The purpose of this RFP is to solicit ... etc."
I wrote an "external RFP" on behalf of a subdivision (due to politics), then due to politics, the project was brought in-house, and my RFP became an "internal" "Response to (my own) RFP". The RTRFP?

I think they are past the RFP process and now need to provide the external 3rd party with requested software design requirements. That is not contained in the RFP/RFP process, if I am not mistaken.
|
|
|
|
|
Then it's just a "User Requirements" document and no need to agonize over a "Request for Something". Just a friendly cover letter.
Then they say: "This is not acceptable." Then you go: "Propose something"; i.e. an RFP
