I'll chime in with a few things.
Q) Is the timing of this announcement in any way related to GenCon happening later this week?
A) Why yes. Linae and I wanted to actually release the changes to the license prior to the show but when it became clear that wasn't going to happen we decided to make the announcement of our intentions to stem off questions regarding the license.
Q) Is the
GSL going to have significant changes?
A) We hope so. If the changes we recommended go through they will be significant.
Q) Am I going to like the changes?
A) I think many people will be happy. It probably won't please everyone but if the changes we recommended go through the license we appeal to a lot more people.
Q) Why should we trust you?
A) You probably shouldn't. As the saying goes "seeing is believing" but know that our intentions are to make the license more user friendly. The proof of our efforts will be in the final output so I would hope for the best but maintain a certain level of skepticism.
Q) Is Clark Peterson a payed shill or something?
A) No, but we value Clark's insight and opinion and want to see publishers like Necromancer make 4th edition compatible supplements.
Q) Is this going to take 6 months (or longer) to release like the last time?
A) I sure hope not. Our legal team has told us they will work on it next week but we are not committing to a time line as those things often shift.
And yet another word from our sponsors
