To clarify, I meant you as in the whole of WotC. Just a hunch, but I suspect that if it were entirely up to Scott (and Slavicsek, and the other people within the hierarchy who are brave enough to come forward and put a public face on the corporation), we'd probably still have the OGL for 4th edition.

Any chance of hints on what those proposed changes might look like?

If not, any chance of telling us who those publishers are, so we can shanghai them into telling us?

Folks, our polls are not scientific. They are a toy. Please don't argue about them like this.
Level of confidence is in fact technically defined. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_level

Look, my initial post was trying to correct a very bad misapprehension (that 900 votes in a poll is a low number), in the field for which I'm a professional teacher. Are you saying as a mod that that's prohibited? Because I can't tell if you're talking as moderator or participant.

Okay, so I closed the thread.

Here's the reason: protracted hijacking with continuing arguments and edition rivalry between 4E and Paizo.

With that caveat, if someone decided to start a new thread about the revision to the GSL, it will stay open so long as everyone can stay focused on the topic at hand. There won't be any warnings in the new thread. Attempts to hijack it into an edition war will result in an extended vacation from the boards while the guilty parties can repeatedly access the rules and think about how they can avoid a further hiatus.
