If it's not Open Source then all the SRD data has to be in human readable files (XML tables and other formatted-yet-plain-text databases are fine. A propritary database format probably is not. Check with a lawyer).To use PCGen as an example, all the data from the SRD is in separate, plain-text files which must be unzipped to use the program.******************I didn't mean to offend the folks at PC Gen or imply that they were doing anything wrong and if it was taken that way I am very sorry.  Based on all of the posts and the above one in particular, I think I will be fine as I currently only want to use the lists from the SRD in a Javascript program which would have a button to display the Open Game License and another to display all of the Open Game Content.  Plus, Javascript and HTML are little more than formatted-yet-plain-text files that easily human-readable.</blockquote>
