Thank you for the clarification. That was my initial thought. The question then is why OGC was identified in articles, since actually none of the articles contain OGC. Some of the material in the articlse may be OGC when it appears in the appropriate product released under the OGL, but as it appears in the Dragon Annual, none of the material is OGC. Yet the "OGC Tracker" boxes explicitly claim certain material is OGC. This is where the mistake was made. Rather than claim that some material in the articles was OGC (as done in the "OGC Tracker" boxes), it would have been better to direct people to the appropriate product. alec _______________________________________________ Ogf-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.opengamingfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ogf-l
