philreed said:I'm still of the opinion that the GSL should have stuck with the $5,000 buy-in, only with the change that the buy-in would be a permanent requirement to accessing and using the license.
And yes, I still think the OGL -- as it was released and as it has been used -- is potentially damaging to PDF publishers.
DanMcS said:Who would that benefit? Large(ish) established publishers who don't want competition? Would you have gotten into OGL publishing at all if the licenses for 3e had included such a provision? Or is this your way of saying "they should have made it $5000 so no one would ever do it"?
DanMcS said:Phil, you've published hundreds, if not thousands of products over the last several years. Your claim seems contrary to your publishing schedule.
Yep, you just need to create your own if you want any NPCs 11th level or higher.Jack99 said:Yes you can, see page 22 of the SRD. (I think)

I'm guessing "non-profit, not-for-sale products" might be better addressed by the fan site policy now.Lizard said:To my mind, the question is -- would WOTC be dumb enough to try to shut down people making things liks PCGen for 4e as non-profit, not-for-sale products?
Orcus said:Clearly, as I understand that existing license, there wont be a "Tome of Horrors" for 4E. I'm not losing the right to make an OGL version. Period. In fact, I am pretty sure that I will be announcing a full color Pathfinder version of the Tome of Horrors shortly. That said, I am still considering a monster book for 4E.
We'll see....
