Honestly, with the S.15 if you use OGC from a source you have to include their S.15 in your S.15, minus the repeats references. So while I know I did not use OGC from most of the references in my S.15 I was still bound to list them from others S.15 I used or violate the license. Hence why my S.15 was so dare long and "scary". I would have just prefered to simple list the book I used OGC out of, but from what I understand from the ePublishers d20/ OGL Guide I could not just do that. |
That is one of the few things I don't like about how the
OGL handles things. I am perfectly okay with the viral nature. But publishers that use content from other publishers it simply builds on top of the existing Sec. 15.
I suggested to Scott Rouse that one of the terms in the new
GSL be that the publisher is required to create a index/OGC declaration etc of every piece of OGC they used and where it came from in addition to the Sec. 15's. (Note: I suggested that this be hosted on the publisher website to keep page count down). This would help other publishers reuse works from other publishers, keep accurate Sec. 15's and identify commonly shared ideas and concepts.
