Re: Submissions

?
I don't think that's how you submit things to Compendium...And they're
s'posed to be acceptable to the Council, I thought, or Static at least...
?
Maybe I'll have to check Comependium...
But I, personally, didn't know you were submitting anything to become
official SJ. A typical list post is "look what I wrote, isn't it cool? feel
free to use it in your games" as opposed to "look what I'm going to make
official, comment if you think it needs corrected."

Now then, the submission process as respectfully stolen from
Compendium...(take note of #1, where it says to put "Submission" in the
subject line)

"Presented here is the process for submitting new material to Compendium:
The Seeker's Archive, including pitfalls to avoid. Questions about
submissions should be sent to the Council members.

The first step in making a submission is posting it to the Spelljammer
Mailing List. The word "Submission:" should be in the subject. You should
also remember to ask for comments.

If you don't have access the the List, or you don't want to have your work
picked apart, you can send the submission to the Council. This will mean
only that a smaller group will be able to comment on your work in step #2
below.

If the submission contains non-text data (e.g. spreadsheets, images), please
let the Council know. We'll arrange to have the data put up on a web site
for everybody to see.

Next, other list members will step in and provide feedback on your work.
This feedback will help the Council judge the submission in the later
stages, and should save a lot of time in the process.

The council will help resolve any issues which may remain. A vote can be
arranged (only if needed and/or wanted) to resolve really tough issues.
Nothing will be posted to Compendium without the author's final approval.

Finally, the author lets the Council know that the entry is ready. Sending a
final copy to the Council will help save time. Council then makes the final
decision on whether the submission will be accepted.

Accepted submissions will be HTMLed and made available to the author for
review shortly after they are accepted. The author will need to give final
approval before the page is linked into the rest of the site."

I would probably have commented had I known what was intended, but I have
undoubtedly deleted the messages already.
