Yeah, that drives me crazy. I had a thread on this a few weeks ago. No one seemed to agree with me... :(

Very cool. I hope they add stuff like condition summaries and combat actions, otherwise its limited to just character creation. Still, a great start!

You may be kidding, but that would work...

It does for me. If I find out that we can release paid product before Oct 1st, we would try and have something ready for Gencon. Granted, its a few months difference, but you would get it sooner rather than later. No, it doesn't answer any questions, but it rules a lot out. Maybe the thread...

Because it directly influences how soon you can get 3rd Party support?

Yeah, why not. The Warlord is one of the brightest spots in 4e IMO. The Bard would be flavored a lot differently, so I think he'll fit without any problems.

That's a legal quagmire and something I don't think any 3rd party publisher should/would attempt. Maybe I'm wrong. Who knows? Time will tell...

I think Chicago...

The heart of the thread is how can they release a pay for product before October 1st.

Sorry, I missed this post. Aside from the timeframe, I see nothing else that states otherwise. They might have approval to release prior to Oct 1st from Wizards. I don't think they would test copyright law. Just MHO.

That's the only bit I don't entirely understand. Everything else seems inline with what is in the GSL.

Who said they are getting around it? They have a sell off period of all physical stock and they need to cease selling electronic PDFs immediately. We'll see what happens when they are released, but this is right in line with the GSL so far.

I don't have the license in front of me, but I'm pretty sure, yes. Even with 3rd Edition stuff, you'd never see a company say that except for the approved usage text. EDIT: The only approved text is the compatibility logo IIRC.

Keep in mind, its two weeks once WotC receives the SoA. We sent ours priority and you still wouldn't see that logo on our website for at least 2 weeks.

You'll see that from everyone. IIRC, the only claim you can make for compatibility is the logo. There is no other language you can use.

Pretty much, yep. Just for the record IANAL either. :)

I found a couple broken images. The first is the new post icon. The second was an icon under my signature. I believe it was the one that went to My Book Shelf. Not sure if that will still be there when this is ported over. Lastly, I don't see the 4e Attack Icons under the Smilies. One word...

Wow, landscape seems pretty popular... I'm obviously in the minority, but that's influenced by the fact that I'd rather print everything out. I guess I need to consider formatting our products landscape when we go 4e...

I'm just curious if anyone else dislikes the landscape format they are using for the DDI PDFs. Its just a matter of personal preference, but I dislike reading things sideways. If these get compiled into print books later do you think they'll keep the same format?

Considering how the GSL is worded, they can pretty much construe it however they want. The simple fix is to release the world book without any license at all.
