Thanks, and I know about the drafted DMG and MM material on the net. It's the "other" works I'm concerned about. I just want to post sections on my website that explain for instance how to incorporate a prestige class from sword and fist into my world. Just like one does in a home (private) campaign. I would have a section titled say, Sword and Fist on >insert my worlds name<. And explain how these are used in my world. The SnF book suggests that one do this for their campaign and i do not understand why I can not put this sort of information out. since my site is mostly for my campaign and players I might just end up password protecting the whole thing, and keeping it private. But I really would like others to be able to see this site, and gather what ever they like from it (as long as I'm not taking or damaging WotC in anyway of course.) I know that the D20STL doesn't allow this sort of thing. But standard copyright laws used with the OLGx.x does. i've also noticed in the rituals and relics hardcover book ,that they refer to MM, DMG, PHB in the main text to explain things. If i have to do that for a simple fan site, fine. All this juggling is making my head hurt. peace -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bandpage: http://unit-1.iwarp.com Some Mistakes Like Life Itself are Good Things ----- Original Message ----- From: Hicks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, May 01, 2001 9:32 AM Subject: Re: [Ogf-l] Getting a licence to use IP > > > From: "dema" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > > > How would one get a licence to use materials found in the MM, DMG and > > other > > > works? > > > > If you're not talking about the right to use the contents of the SRD > itself, > > but are interested in the other "parts" of those works, then the answer is > > that as a practical matter, there is no way to do so at this time. > > > > Also Dema, if you look at the draft SRD on the opengaming site, it > looks like most of the monsters names and stats from the MM will > be available for use under OGL.
