Detailed questions should probably go to Steve Martin (stephen_at_...). He doesn't read the lists, so you'd need to e-mail him directly.

Issaries online policy would already cover most of this, providing the result is given away without charge. You'd probably be in trouble if you wanted to include the actual rules, but if you produced a supplement you should be fine. See Bruce Ferrie's Buffy and Superhero HQ variants for the sort of thing that should be fine.

No idea. I'd imagine they'd want a percentage, but it would probably depend on what you intended.
