They have a right to protect their stuff, but I think they're spending way too much of their resources doing it. |

w00t (not verified) October 13, 2009 - 7:36pm | Thanks for the link. I'll compare it to the document I've been working on offline. I decided to split the Star doc and Planet doc into separate downloads. I finished the final version of the Star Doc and need to upload it. It'll be a least a month before the Planet doc is completed. |
