Thanks for the response Andreas! Naturally, it raises some more questions.

So there are features inside OOTP that only get enabled once the league is registered with OOTP developments...

If this is the case, then I don't really understand how the promoted feature of smaller league files would only affect leagues signed up with OOTP. Is that part of the bonus for signing up?

I guess I still don't quite understand how these features will work if all OOTP is hosting is a database of online leagues. For example, I would expect the exports to continue to be sent to a league website, so I don't understand how OOTP would know if there are exports there or not. Unless I'm providing OOTP with access credentials to my league's website, which I would expect most commishes to be somewhat reluctant about.
