Quick question: is this anthology a "paid in copies" or "donate to charity" or "vanity press" or something other?

Anon: here's what one of the editors had to say:

"We're hoping the authors will receive a contributor's copy but that has not been determined yet. It will not be published by a vanity press. We are approaching a mainstream publisher."

The editors are well-known poets with good credentials, so I expect the anthology has a pretty good chance of finding a publisher.
