I have a question about the anonymous reveals period as it relates to podfic. Fic, art, and vids are all pretty easy to anonymize and post without a name attached, but podfic is a little more difficult, given that it's...well, your VOICE, and thus naturally kind of gives you away. Plus, it's a little more complicated given that most podfics have to be downloaded in order to be listened to, so going back and replacing a non-anonymized version with the signed one is a lot more of a pain. I run the largest podfic exchange, and we never bother with anonymity because once many people hear their gifter's voice they recognize who it is; however, since this isn't run just within the podfic community, I recognize that that recognition is significantly less likely. Also of note is that many podficcers use Paraka Productions hosting, which contains their username in the subdomain, which also ruins anonymity. How would you like to handle this?
