Are you saying that the growing number of people who are releasing all or almost all of their work as open content are naive, or haven't understood what they're doing?I'd be honored to have Behemoth3's work reprinted in a year's best anthology. We've already assigned any other publisher the right to reprint our materials without payment for whatever purpose they see fit using the Open Game License -- and created a limited license to allow them to use PI elements ("Behemoth3" and the titles of our books) to state where they got our open content from. Since Monte's asking, I'll submit a release form. But it's obvious to me that he's being more generous than he needs to be, and I appreciate that.Re: Spectrum and why their protocols differ from other anthologies, I'll be up at David Hartwell and Kathryn Cramer's on Saturday for the <a href="http://www.nyrsf.com" target="_blank">New York Review of Science Fiction</a> work weekend; since they edit Tor's Year's Best series, they're likely to have some insight why Spectrum (which is indeed a respected & professional anthology) handles it the way they do. I'll let y'all know what I learn!</blockquote>
