Would it be possible to do both though? Have a special license to publish WotC IP w/o using the OGL, but then use the OGL to create OGC in the same work. I'm not asking why you'd want to do it this way, just asking if it were possible...assuming proper notation of OGC and PI, of course.
Paul W. King In order to use copyrighted material of WotC (such as the SRD) any other party must have permission from WotC. [Fair use exceptions noted, but pretty much irrelevant.] The OGL is one way to obtain such permission for certain material, the SRD, but there are others. The OGL only applies to those who use the copyright material under that license - anyone (such as Dragon, Dungeon, Kingdoms of Kalamar) with separate agreement doesn't care about the requirements of the OGL at all because that license doesn't apply to them. However, such third parties also aren't creating any OGC which others can use since they aren't publishing under the OGL. _______________________________________________ Ogf-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.opengamingfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ogf-l
