Well, here's my reason:

Dunandralis.  We _could_ stick it on the web without the OGL, but that leaves 
us without the future option to have our work sold or sell the work 
ourselves.  We don't _plan_ to do that, but almost every member of the 
project who voiced an opinion stated that they wanted the freedom and control 
over their work that the OGL provided.  This way, I could contibute a 100% 
open module to Dunandralis, but another member could decide to keep his 
favorite NPC as PI and close off certain parts of his submission.  This is 
not "official", however, because we are yet to decide what to do with all of 
this.  But is is a reason for why Dunandralis is going to be a function of 
the OGL and not the Online Policy.
