Who has paid the $5000 (what companies)?

No one has paid the 5K yet, because no one has had the opportunity to pay it yet.
WotC has not, apparently, finished the GSL (and last we heard, is "still vetting their policy on open gaming"), and has yet to make the offer to any companies. That's a bit distressing, since the exclusivity period is rapidly shrinking, meaning that there's less and less incentive for companies to pay the $5,000 anyway, since it'll now have less value.

I would hope that there would be some sort of update at the GAMA Trade Show next week, which runs from April 20-24. (http://www.gama.org/)
Wizards of the Coast will be there, as will most of the 3rd party publishers who would probably want the GSL.

Last Update was at I-Con April 5th. Bill Slavicsek said they were still doing "due diliegence" on the policy, meaning the lawyers are still picking at it to make sure it legally means what it is intended to do, AFAIK.
The whole "vetting the policy on open gaming" is clearly "vetting the policy on opn gaming"

What about the people that contributed to Wolfgang Bauer's 4E Open Design project? I think that's the only money that has actually changed hands in regards to 4E, and is now waiting to be paid to WOTC once the GSL is completed.
(Then again, I could be wrong, since I don't keep up with these things.)
