Re: Submissions to Compendium (Static) - complete post

Well, considering SJ was given the chop in '91 and Wizards came into its own
in '93 (and I think bought TSR in '95 or '96), it can be safely assumed they
didn't control TSR during SJ's product run...barring unusual circumstances,
like a time machine or two.

Er...isn't all canon "setting" canon? The system is very mutable, or there
would be no changing to 3e, because that would mean breaking with canon. And
a GURPS game could conform to *all* of the "setting" canon with *none* of
the "system" canon...

Anyway. Yep, canon comes from all the published SJ material and Static's
Compendium, those being authorized by TSR/WOTC/HASBRO. Official and canon
meaning roughly the same thing, those two are the only sources for official
material too. (Canon is just a way to make it sound sacrosanct, like, you
know, saints.)
