Adventures in Linux gaming

I think it would be best for Ryzom if they released the geography they were using on their services, but had the loot and interesting places be in patches that they wouldn't release (or wouldn't release until the community had stopped being interested in them). Servers run by people other than Winch Gate would just have different adventures, in much that same way that WordPress doesn't come with any blog posts, but does come with styles, so you can use it contributing only your own text. It sounds like the example data provided so far isn't enough to be a world where contributed adventures could happen.
