ENWorld is not a licensee of Wizards (that I'm aware of). You don't NEED to license the game to discuss it.

That clause says that you CAN'T produce a GSL-licensed website. Not that you can't mention the game online without being a licensee.

People had this same misconception about the OGL- that online discussion of it needed to obey the license. How do you think people discuss games that aren't available for license at all?

You can sell PDFs, which are themselves licensed products, but your website which sells them isn't one.
