Unless he wishes to use other people's OGL material. This is the point
you keep dodging -- the value of the OGL is in the (presumed) library of
material to be released under it. At the moment, this value is
relatively nill. A year from now...

I know that if I saw anything I might choose to release under OGL in a
netbook that was not OGLed, I'd be peeved. I suspect that if John Tynes
saw the OGLed monsters from 3D2AK in "Joe Fanboy's Book Of K3wl Stuph"
(a non-OGL compilation), he'd be also peeved -- and he might cast Lawyer
Summoning I. And I'm virtually certain that if anything WOTC released
under the OGL found its' way to a non-OGL document, they'd cast Lord
High Lawyer Summoning True. (For you RM fans...)
