Two points.
Firstly, if, and only if, the organizers of the www.chessvariants.com
website agree to a work-around, I am generally agreeable to a work-around,
though subject to my second point.
Secondly, I am unwilling to post details of my two entries to a Yahoo
group as Yahoo groups have rules about intellectual property rights in
postings and what 'you' will be doing with your own intellectual property
rights in posting to a Yahoo group. I am happy with the rules about
intellectual property rights as stated in the 84 Spaces Contest rules, but
I am certainly not going to post my entries to a Yahoo group.
I wonder why Yahoo groups is suggested at all. Surely a thread on this
www.chessvariants.com website could be started. As I feel that the
permission of the organizers of the www.chessvariants.com website should
be a necessary enabling permission of publishing our entries before the
official publication, if that permission were forthcoming then perhaps it
could be accompanied by a permission to post entries in posts to this
website.
