Previous winning *stories* are inelligible. Previous winning authors are
not. I've changed the permissions for Authro Liaisons (actually, Anthony
did) so that they should be able to withdraw nominations now.

If an author had a story win, their *other* stories are still eligible.
And they are still eligible in the authors category. So in theory I
could have entered a story in "Men" last year and won the Men/Authors
award. Then I could enter a *new* story in Men this year and also win
this year's Men/Author award.
But the key point is: if your story was complete last year, and it was
entered into the 2004 MEFAs (even if it didn't win), it's ineligible
for this eyar.
Hope that clears it up.
