[QUOTE="Aristotle, post: 1822854, member: 5885"] It truly wasn't meant to be. I'm not trying to restrict anybody or raise myself up above other people because they are doing something I don't agree with. At the same time, we're discussing this issue on an open forum so I took the liberty to express how I feel about it honestly... and the straw man statement was honestly what the argument sounded like to me. I'm not looking to bolster my side. I don't have a side. What's being done is perfectly legal, and if the publishers don't want it to happen they'll deal with it in some way in future products. They pay people to fight these battles for them, so I don't feel a need to do their dirty work. I simply wanted to offer my point of view in a discussion that interests me even though I already know that the 'answer' is: That its completely legal and we are all free to do whatever we like with that content so long as we follow the rules of the license(s). Heck, I'm planning to release a campaign setting sometime in 2005 (I know, campaign settings don't sell... but I've always wanted to do one anyway). That alone gets me interested anytime the licenses are being discussed. I definately plan to use OGC from UA as well as other sources. [/QUOTE]
