I'm fairly sure that the admins have said that this included other published adventures such as the various WotC printed mods.
That's how I read it. However, why would WotC wish to discourage use of their other printed products?
Would this also make the lairs provided in Draconomicon and Open Grave useless for LFR?

I always assumed that meant I couldn't reskin a standard published published module. I couldn't "re-skin" CORM1-1 for example. Personally I wouldn't have a problem with someone running a published mod pretty much as written. They aren't "re-skinning" anything.
In any case the RPGA police aren't likely to bust down your door if you do and by following MYRE guidelines for xp and rewards the characters would be legal for LFR play.
I'm fairly sure that the admins have said that this included other published adventures such as the various WotC printed mods. At the very least, you're right, no one is going to come to your house and take away your dice if you do, but if LFR did ever make their own adaptables of these mods (again, also unlikely) then at the very least, your players would be confused (or other players might be).
Maybe. This thread seems to indicate that using Dungeon mods as the basis for MYRE adventures is OK. Whether the same holds for other types of published adventures isn't answered, but I don't see why the same rule wouldn't apply.

Sean Molley: I think the Chaos Scar adventures are an excellent length for adapting to LFR using the My Realms packet. They are long enough to be satisfying and short enough to finish in 4-5 hours. And so far, they have all been really interesting. Just remember that My Realms adventures cannot be distributed, so only you (and potentially one co-author) can run your adaptation, even if it is an adaptation of a Dungeon adventure.

Thanks, rczarnec, that would suggest it is ok to take non-LFR published mods and reskin them. Very interesting.
Of course, we've never gotten conflicting info from the PTB before, have we. ;-)

It takes a bit more work then reskinning since you need to make sure xp, gp and treasure bundles are correct. Otherwise though Sean's opinion is the same as that of the other globals. You can use MYREs to run official WotC adventures as long as you reskinned them. You CANNOT use them to reskin LFR adventures though. You should also realize that we might use official published adventures (especially FR ones) and hence official events might differ from your MYRE version. The promise to leave the rumors/plot ideas alone only goes for those offered in the MYRE document.
