FWIW, here's how Moon Design handles canon:

If Greg personally wrote the piece in question, it is canonical for Moon Design unless Greg later changes his mind. And anything Moon Design publishes under the Gloranthan HeroQuest line is canonical for all future Moon Design publications.

That's it. You don't need to have access to obscure out of print fan publications to know the Gloranthan canon. When "Sartar: Kingdom of Heroes" is published, that will be the canon regarding the Orlanthi for future Moon Design publications. Same thing with "Pavis", "Whitewall", and "The Guide to Glorantha".

YGWV, but we are trying to make it easier for people to play in Glorantha and even write Gloranthan publications without needing to study an obscure and esoteric corpus of manuscripts, articles, and emails.
