I can say that it definitely includes anyone who produces hard/soft covers for sale. It probably also includes anyone who has "General Membership" status with the GPA (www.thegpa.org) The problem with "non-commercial" publishers, is that it gets really difficult to tell the difference between a legitimate group that is putting things together on a regular basis (like the FaNCC) and someone who is "just a guy that wants to get a free copy of stuff to share with his friends, and happens to have a website up." There are similar problems with "start-ups." I believe it will probably have to come down to someone having to Approve/Disapprove each individual request to be included, that does not clearly come from a commercial publisher. But this is exactly the type of thing that WotC doesn't have the staff for at the moment. I'll keep everyone here informed, but it may be a few weeks before WotC has the time and resources to dedicate to solving this problem. -- Mike _______________________________________________ Ogf-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.opengamingfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ogf-l
