This relates to something I've been considering. I will often buy a
supplement just to get a few pages of material I really want. Under OGL,
however, I (or someone else) could 'harvest' the open gaming material
from published sources, and put it on a web site for anyone to use.
Thus, any new monsters, spells, sub-rules, magic items, etc, which
appear in commercial modules but which are OGLed could end up on such a
site.
