OK, it looks like I did mess something up :-(

It looks like our "Author's copyrights" section may breach the license that I have to personally sign. The problematic sentence is "We encourage the use and republishing of the ideas and concepts included in this wiki, with attribution where practical."

The conflicting sentence in the license that I have to sign is "Licensee acknowledges that any material derived from or incorporating the Proprietary Material cannot be further copied, distributed, or otherwise exploited without Issaries' written approval."

My worst case interpretation is that, while the bulk of our site is probably OK, some parts, particularly the derived map(s) and the quotations must not be included under our statement. And yes, I know that we state "ideas and concepts" and I know that we further qualify it that use outside Glorantha is problematic.

Any suggestions?

Jeff?

The painful bit is that, from tomorrow, I will not have much access to email or web for 3 weeks.

regards,
Charles
