Everybody. The assumption that there's some objective Truth out there doesn't imply that anybody knows exactly what it is.

Actually I'd say the "objectivists" on the whole seem happy with the Gloranthan status quo anteincendibellum (pre-KoS, roughly).

Agreed, except that I'd state it somewhat differently - if you want to assume or construct a Subjective Glorantha out of late-80s to mid-90s obscuria, good on you. I'll stick with what works for me. I do, however, reserve the right to piss and moan if such dribbles of new material as appear from time to time aren't of any particular interest or use to me, drop my hard-earned on something else, and stump for things that I'll find useful/interesting/worth opening my wallet for.
