Everyone
Albeit a little late, I'd like to say "Thanks" to all those that
responded to my earlier set of irritating newbie questions. The
answers were many and varied and all extremely interesting. I'll
post a summary (mainly about what illumination is) if anyone is
interested.

You wanted to know what people are interested in you releasing. You
could put all your files onto csua.berkeley if they'll let you. If
that is not an option, I'd like to see some cultural/social
information on how people live, like the fighting etiquette and
Hearth Day rituals that were posted recently.
And finally, the irritating newbie question: how prevalent is the
use of coin in DP/Prax? I presume that the Lunars use coin for most
tansactions and the Praxians (at least internally) hardly at all,
preferring barter. Is this right? What about Manirian barbarians?
Coin in cities, perhaps, but how is trade performed in the
boondocks? Would a village redsmith accept coin or gems to repair an
adventurer's armour, or would they hold out for livestock,
provisions, etc (perhaps "liberated" from the neighbouring village -
have to use Martin's raiding notes sometime!)?
Thanks again for your patience; please tell me if I'm getting too
irritating.
Neil.
