There is no question you did a great job on this project and I look forward to others from you and I hope other authors.
Personally I think this project, the POD and Drivethrough moves and the announcements for TFT are going to be very good for GURPS visibility.

That said, after being so heavily focused on dungeon crawling for so long (which, yes, I've totally been a part of and depending on the the Pyramid Dungeon Collection goes may continue to be a part of), it's nice to see a slate of generic and other-genre works coming up for GURPS. I'm particularly interested in seeing Phil's new steampunk works.
Those were not RPG products though, so I did not expect any carryover. Most of my Munchkin friends dont even know who SJG is so no real company loyalty.
And I second your last statement, I really am looking forward to more diversity. Other than my own project the one I personally am the most interested in is Kelly Pederesen's Social Engineering project. I like the topic and most of his Pyramid articles and this will be his first book.
