Um, no its not moot. True20 IS
OGL. It is NOT d20. Two completely different license that can (but not must) work together. One of the references on the
OGL in the True20 system book is the d20
SRD. The abuses by
3PP that are generally referred to by Pro-
WotC supporters refer to someone that takes the
SRD and reprintes the whole of it. Mongoose did this with the Pocket Players Guide and others have as well.
True20 and Pathfinder are wrongfully lumped in with them because they took the core of these made new games out of them. True20 stripped away alot of rules and simplified the math. Pathfinder kept the basic game and enhanced it into an upgraded game, while still being recognizible and compatable.
