[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 8932807, member: 18"] It's not in the OGL 1.1, no-one ever said it was (or certainly not any journo or the like). This has been explained multiple times now. It was in an additional document with 1.1 - the terms sheet. So this is a good example of a misunderstanding on your part, and you might want to think on that a bit before accusing others of misleading you. People are quite capable of misleading themselves. Sure, and that would be fun to see - and one day it might leak - but I'm confident in saying that because it was NDA'd and not hugely relevant, it hasn't. Further you seeing it yourself does not guarantee you will understand it very well. With no insult intended, you might well misunderstand it. Someone like [USER=7023840]@Snarf Zagyg[/USER] or one of our other lawyers would be far more likely to have a valid understanding that you could achieve yourself. EDIT - Additionally I'd note Kyle has hedged on this. He said both that draft documents can contain signature blocks and so on (technically correct, the best kind of correct), but he also did appear to admit that at least one party might have indeed signed this supposedly "draft" document, which destroys the idea that it was actually a draft in any meaningful sense of the word. He's been vague and that's his prerogative, of course. [/QUOTE]
