    What a wonderful idea!

    Please reserve 00469 for me, thanks! Or just 469 if we don't have to have a five-digit number.

    I'd like to reserve 01111 for my publications, the name of which I haven't decided yet actually
    possibly.... Queen of Space Continuum? ... or Hierophantic Elucidations?... Prince of Cups Publications? ... not sure yet!
    .... or possibly just Ox Publishing....
    :)

    Thank you for doing this Vyrin!!! I think it's a very good idea to be proactive on how we want to organize ourselves!

    My one concern is we will eventually need more than a thread to keep track of publishers. I do very much like the idea but would also like to propose an addition.

    To revise an old idea here I'd recommend to authors to incorporate something similar to the above. For example..

    <publisher ID(your 5 digit number reserved here>-<genre ID><book ID>

    So if I were to publish something with this system I'd add a print number or something similar so it might look like this..

    00101-NF01A-01

    01 one being a first edition or first printing.
