Subject: Dominion Games needs help

Dominion Games wants to apply the Open Source concept to the rules of
their games.  Such rules are ordinarily copyrighted with the usual
lack of permissions.  They want to do something different.  They've
got a license they like.  If you'd like to review their license, send
them mail at company at dominiongames.com.  Tell 'em OSI sent you.
