So far, I have only converted the book, and not done anything with it
yet, so the only thing I plead guilty of is letting the cat out of the
bag.

The purpose of this post and my email conversation with Jeroen
was to determine where the line lies.

I am not going to do anything with it that I either not consider
moral myself, or that is not cosidered moral by most people.

I think that (c) is definetely out of the question, as is
copying lines from Jeroens book.

(a) is probably acceptable ("Als je in autoplayerpartijen
constateert dat er gaten zijn en je vult die zelf aan, dan
is dat natuurlijk geen enkel probleem.")

As for (b), well, that looks like a real rats nest doesn't it?
