My own personal experiences along those lines are that the folks at GDW do not
have an understanding of what shareware is.  When I asked Marc Miller at
GDW about this he quoted me a liscence that they issue for Traveller approved
playing aids for $1000.   If you are like me, you don't have $1000 to
toss into the ring for a shareware program that 90% of the populace that takes
it will not even register anyway....

I am as you can gather a somewhat frustrated contributer to the shareware
concept....

	Well, this is not really the place to contact GDW. As there is no one
present on the list that is connected with GDW/DGP. Well, not directly anyway.
You should either talk to a lawyer about this or talk to GDW by phone or
something.
