For people in a Dragaeran list server? I propose a modification on this recommendation. The latest Dragaeran book requires a spoiler until a month after the paperback version of the book is released. Other Brust books maybe require 6 months. In a forum such as rec.arts.sf.written, put a spoiler on anything less than a year old, or when a spoiler really is a spoiler. Anybody subscribing to a dragaeran list-server has to expect discussion of the latest book. -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/
