phloog said:Also, I'd be interested in Clark or another attorney's opinion about this: True, Wizards has been pretty cool about personal/individual web sites with content...but when they introduce the GSL, won't they be in some way required to be more harsh about protection? I've always heard that in cases like this, if it can be shown that a company did not fiercely defend their IP (through C&Ds, lawsuit, etc.) then they could lose rights to defend in the future....so I guess I'm thinking that while they're pretty passive now, depending on what the GSL says they might crack down.
I'm not a lawyer, but I believe this is only true regarding trademarks, which is something else altogether from the situation with D&D and the GSL.
