One thing that I think should occur, regardless of what copyright schema is
decided upon, is that some degree of "Nettiquette" should be observed.
Simple polite agreements can solve potential problems before they occur.
It is only polite to ask if you wish to use something that someone put a large
amount of work into, such as a character or a major plotline, and it is only
polite to accept such a proposal.


One other thing, it would also be a good idea to give blanket credit to
the list in anything published, that way everyone gets some credit without havi
ng to sort through the 100+ names on the list to figure out who wrote what.
