True, but you have to follow the letter of the contract unless there has been a previous ruling against certain concepts/wordings. This contract has an 'exact text' reference. That means 'exact text.' Yes, it is unwieldy, but it means that I can put a reference in, and know that it won't be twisted/modified by another person using my work. I have yet to see a reference to case law where 'exact text' doesn't mean 'exact text.' Yes, I am also of the opinion that you have to list Source A more than once if referenced in more than one source you are using. That means a lot of SRD references. *Shrug* I'll take the protection over elegant display. It's a legal document. They aren't designed to be pretty. They are designed to do a job. Now, going for individual OGLs per item is a way to go, or as someone on the list suggested, asking for a specific item release from the publisher is another way. Andrew McDougall a.k.a.
