[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 4725748, member: 8461"] Yeah, but I like to complain about that, something I can't do if I'm late in getting things done myself. ;) Indeed correct. The revised GSL does away with all limitations on using the OGL completely; in fact, it doesn't even mention "OGL" at any point within the license. Ergo, you could publish a 3.5 version of a book under the OGL, and a 4E version of the exact same book, title and product line and all, under the GSL. The one caveat to beware of, however, is if you want to use the OGL and GSL in the same book (as opposed to using the OGL for a 3.5 version of a book, and the GSL for a 4E version of the same book). While it's technically possible to do so, the GSL FAQ addresses while this would be a difficult needle to thread: Woo-hoo! :D It's good to hear that you're open to releasing further 3.5 products in the future! That said, it sounds like the short-term effect of this would be that you'd shift your focus to 4E materials, and given the pace at which you work (I told you I like to complain) that seems to mean that it'd likely be a very long time before we'd see any future 3.5 IH material. Still, it's far and away better news than you abandoning 3.5 altogether. :) Oddly, Eternity Publishing isn't available on the drop-down list of publishers over on RPGNow. However, it is possible to find [i]Ascension[/i] and the [i]Epic Bestiary Vol. 1[/i] by manually searching for them on the RPGNow website. Here's the link for Eternity Publishing's [url=http://www.rpgnow.com/index.php?cPath=363]product page[/url], though it should also show the products with their sales blurbs at the bottom. You should still be able to purchase those products normally...I think. [/QUOTE]
