If the original GSL is "absoulte" hostile, why is it being used by some companies?

Where does all this anger come from? Between justanobody and carmachu, you'd think WotC ran over their kittens or something.

They did in a way. Thats what the GSL is, so to speak. It interferes with my ability to buy good quality products.

OGL was created many many moons ago. In the term some always say "what have you done for me lately?" OGL is something their trying to reverse, so holding it up now isnt much good.

GSL shows caring by its existance? Really? Are you reading the same document as I did, with the yanking and the poison pill and other restrictions? If thats your example of caring, you prove my point. The lack of revision in timely manner, and the delays prior sows as well.
