I understand (and as I have said, I agree) that everything derived from the
SRD is insufficient by itself to serve as identification. But, since PI can
be part of OGC then the statement, "The entire text of this book is OGC.
However, all information derived from source X is PI and may not be reused
without permission etc." does declare what is OGC (which I believe was Mike
Kletch's complaint). If I then list all of the sections I can think of that
are from source X, is the statement, "all information derived from source X
is PI and may not be reused etc." going to serve in the same catch all
capacity? In fact, if source X is a PD source I could include it on my
website for anyone's perusal.

That brings up a separate, but interesting question. Isn't all PD "sort of
OGC" already. Is there any harm in deriving from PD and/or contributing it
to OGC as long as you are certain not to include any specific trademarks
from the PD material?
