 +--> Transcript of Peters' Invitation (click to view)#
 +Tue [May 24] \\
 +**Alec Peters**: Hey, with the lawsuit in the home stretch thanks to JJ Abrams, CBS has said they are coming up with guidelines. I want all of us fan film makers to get together and submit our suggested guidelines. \\ \\ Already spoken to Todd Haberkorn (STC), Mike King (Valiant), John Atkin (Yorktown), Ryan Husk (Renegades). \\ \\ James Cawley is being a pain and submitting his own guidelines. \\
 +\\
 +**Producer**: I've been open with mine. No one likes them but me. And that's fine.
 +  - No crowdsourced funding
 +  - No selling of fan film merchandise
 +  - No paying of cast and crew (you can pay an electrician, a plumber, or for pest control, but you can't pay for a grip, gaffer, director, etc.) \\ \\ I don't see the point of time limits.
 +
 +**Alec Peters**: OK, cool
