At this time Gail is not part of Gygax Magazine. Personally, I hope that she decides to come onboard in the future. All the posts from Gygax magazine staff I've seen were clear that this project is something Ernie and I are involved in as part of a larger team including Tim Kask, Jayson Elliot, James Carpio and Jim Wampler.That's about as definitive as it gets right now. Thanks to Luke for providing this information and helping to clear up some of the confusion.
Gygax Magazine is supported by the Gygax family members who are actually gamers. Ernie (aka Ernest Gary Gygax Jr.) was the first person to playtest D&D, played numerous iconic characters in Greyhawk and worked for TSR through the 1980's. I cut my teeth on gaming and feel passionate about the positive aspects that gaming brings to people's lives. Gygax Magazine is a way for us to share our love of gaming both Old School and current systems with the gaming community. We are focused on producing a quality magazine and we hope that you will take the time to read the first issue in December.
Please realize that the information on Gygax Magazine was leaked ahead of our projected announce date. This resulted in unwanted confusion. I appreciate the excitement this has generated and I hope that the product meets expectations.
