Mikado,
You are correct.
The website was done entirely with Linda Leach's approval. I worked on it quite a bit one Christmas break when I drove out to California from Ohio. She watched over my shoulder as I typed. This was before pdf got started so everything was typed by hand - many, many hours.
Anyhow, Linda Leach did not want to have ANY public exposure whatsoever. Absolutely NO exposure. I was to be the ONLY face of the Townsend Brown Family, and I even copyrighted a number of documents. You can still find them floating around the web with the Soteria Copyright.
Linda Leach gave me absolute authority over everything, and I was free to do whatever I wanted with the documents. I sold copies for a minimal amount to cover a (very minimal) amount of the website costs (all paid for by myself).
In the beginning, I even went by the pseudonym "Juniper" per Linda Leach's request. She was paranoid that anyone would "find her."
Of course, everything I did I brought to her attention first. Even the journals which Linda Leach said I gave to Mark Bean without her permission - you better believe I asked her, and she thought it was a great idea. I always considered everything her property, and held TTB in high esteem. That is why after all her lies came to light, I returned all of her documents, plus a number of mine I had collected (aside from those I decided to recycle
Oh, Linda Leach is the Thomas Townsend Brown Family.
And neither I, nor anyone else, owes the "Brown Family" anything (you are correct Fred).

P.S. I was thinking that if Backpack Dave aka "Morgan" is such a Caroline Group bigshot, then I welcome him to come up to Maine and "set me straight" on the whole can of worms. That is if he could afford the bus ticket. The Caroline Group teleportation system is frequently out of service I hear.
