		+	== Publishing a game to the servers ==
		+
		+	Given that a game supports compo4all (pushes scores to it, say), a few steps remain.
		+
		+	- the compo4all server must be told about the game, via a config file submitted to skeezix (at the openpandora boards)
		+	- ideally, the http://c4a.openpandora.org/ website needs to have some marquee artwork (send an image to milkshake at the openpandora boards)
		+
		+	A config file example (pulled from current indie game) is below; the values shoudl be more or less self explanatory, but I realize at this time this isn't a great deal of information; please ask if you're confused about the syntax or acceptible values and I'll update this page!
		+
		+	Sample config file:
		+
		+	{
		+	"active": true,
		+	"plugin": "scoreonly",
		+	"module": null,
		+	"alltime": true,
		+	"platforms": [ "pandora" ],
		+	"league": "all",
		+	"shortname": "mygame",
		+	"longname": "My Game!",
