Many of us have read (and pointed others toward) some of your blog posts on the subject. Naturally, no one wants you to jeopardize what puts food on your table! But we're all really hoping to see more publishers go the Baen route, so we're more than a little interested in any tidbits we can get about this and similar deals.
