I dropped Whiteknight a note, and he says that you'd be more than
welcome to alter "his" book. I asked him to leave a message on your

I have interacted with him regularly for the past two years, and he's a
pretty reasonable guy. WB doesn't suffer from the crap that WP does, so
I think your fears are unfounded.
