WotC Open Game License.  to distinguish it from other open game 
licenses that do or will exist.  [also, a pet peeve: i hate it when 
some entity labels an item with the description of the item, and 
turns it into a proper noun by capitalizing it.  i refuse to refer to 
something as "the Open Game License", because it implies that it is 
*the* OGL, when it is merely *an* OGL.  it also risks confusing "Open 
Game License" with "open game license", especially in verbal 
communication.
