Hi Robert,
Thanks heaps for sharing your design.
Not sure about whats happening over there in the states, but here in
Australia I've always found permies to be a pretty giving lot. For instance
Darren Doherty has just about all his past designs available online here

What do you mean when you say that you are getting your design "certified"?

Since first getting involved with permaculture, I
have mused off and on about how few permaculture
designs are publicly available. I suppose there
are many reasons for this, among them that each
design is specific to a particular place. But I
tend to think that the paucity of designs
circulating around is a limiting factor in the
growth and spread of permaculture design
principles. That may be an error on my part,
since I remain only a tadpole in training.
Nevertheless, I am making the design I wrote for
my own house close to downtown Oklahoma City,
which I submitted for certification to Dan
Hemenway of Barking Frogs Permaculture, available
as a PDF e-book download from the lulu.com
self-publishing site, with the title -- "Gatewood
Urban Homestead: City living that meets the
challenges of peak oil, climate instability, and
economic irrationality," for the price of $12.50.
The direct link to the book is
http://www.lulu.com/content/3505495 . You can
preview for free the first 11 pages which covers
the table of contents. Proceeds benefit my
"design implementation fund".
