It's not a trust issue at all for me. It's me not wanting to be responsible even a teeny bit for another Christopher Knight. I have no doubts regarding the integrity of the people involved; I'm a cynical bastard, yes, but not that cynical.

When I say "track record" I mean of things professionally written and/or edited. In lieu of that, I suppose I can check out their LJs. Hell, I might wind up submitting to them myself!
