Well, that would be interesting, given that he hadn't been working for WotC for two years by the time 3.5 was released.
Got a link to it?
Just tried google fu but the link is long dead.

Not surprising. If Monte Cook did say it, he probably removed it prior to going back to work for WotC to avoid trouble. Or it was removed simply because of the age.
Got a link to someone quoting it or talking about it in enough detail to get a general gist of what was said? This site probably had a topic on it back then.

The OGL I was referring to and the d20 license are the same thing. WotC had a habit of sometimes calling it the OGL. So, the confusion in terms is in part because WotC themselves never kept the terms entirely straight.
The need for a half-edition
The rise of the OSR and its resultant loss of customers
The collapse of the 3pp market
If you just got into RPG with 3e and PF its probably quite perplexing when WoTC doesn't appear to want to push out endless books of stuff.
Given they had to replace the core rules with a new set, I fail to see how one can justify not calling that a failure.
Don't forget that 3.0 was a massive slowdown from the 2e release cycle.
