ToV Black Flag Reference Document (BFRD) Now in Creative Commons CC-BY 4.0

The ORC license is a lot less attractive than the OG OGL, IMO. I wouldn't see the point to spending the energy publishing something under it as a third party.

I thought it is basically the OGL but with less wiggle room when it comes to what has to be open (for licensees). What makes it a lot less attractive to you?

The "lack of wiggle room" severely undersells what is basically a complete dealbreaker. It basically kills it as a license that a rational actor would sign on for as a third party IMO...and the presence of the predominant system om the market being under the "more wiggle room" Creative Commons makes avoiding it a no-brainer. Creative Commons, like public domain, respects the original contributions of creators. ORC basically involves surrendering legal rights to the originating party.

I think the important thing (for purposes this thread at any rate) is that the Blag Flag Reference Document (BFRD) is now in the Creative Commons
