[QUOTE="JohnNephew, post: 104318, member: 2171"] [b]Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Could WotC Put the Genie Back in the Bottle?[/b] The fact that the SRD is released under the OGL is what allows you to use it. (If it were not released under the OGL, why would WotC have created the OGL, rather than just the D20STL?) Which passage of the d20 System Trademark License and guide is confusing you on this point? Remember, it's the D20 System Trademark License -- a license for the use of the D20 System trademark. In order to use the trademark, you must agree to all kinds of provisions beyond the Open Game License. If you choose not to use the trademark, you do not need the license, and you may do what you please under the terms of the OGL alone (including, if it tickles your fancy, redefining "Chaotic Evil" as a game term to mean "Loves Plush Stuffed Animal and Watches Reality TV Avidly"). I'd encourage you to check the archives of the OGL and D20 mailing lists (aren't they available on opengamingfoundation.org?), if you are skeptical, as this issue has been discussed at length on multiple occasions.
