I've had absolutely no problem with Greg (Yes, my LightOfAction site hasn't been updated recently, but that's because I haven't really painted or done much wargaming, but the Engiziland page
(http://lightofaction.com/Engiziland/) is updated (just not recently because we haven't finied the current skirmish). And the Engiziland site is much like what you are envisioning.

You only need to link to the FPP from the home page, and that's it. Updates don't need to be run past Greg.

I think the FPP *did* slow things down, but not because of the policy itself, but because of the uproar and bad feelings it caused.
