Just because
WotC left the public pool doesn't mean we have to as well.

Personally, the OGC declaration was always the 2nd thing I read in a product (the first being the back cover overview).
However, I get your point that
for 4e open game content is dead unless a third party publisher comes up with their own cool license and lets others use it (given the "spirit of open gaming" among many publishers, I can see that as at least a possibility).
But, yes, for
4e there is no content sharing between third party publishers through the
GSL. That is gone.
However, the water's still nice over here in the 3.5 public pool.
