[QUOTE="Scurvy_Platypus, post: 5512010, member: 43283"] Errrr.... I'm not quite sure what you're asking and I'm not a lawyer... But if you're asking "Can I still use the WotC SRD?" or "Can I still use the WotC SRD for a project and publish it?" then the answer would be, "Yes, provided you follow the provisions of the Open Game License." The OGL as a license hasn't been revoked and my understanding is that it can't be. The SRD (both 3.0 and 3.5) have been released using the OGL and therefore are completely useable as long as you adhere to the terms of it. On a pedantic note, the term "SRD" simply means "System Reference Document"; while many people mean "the SRD released by WotC", there are others out there. For example, there's an SRD for a game called "Spirit of the Century" which is a completely non-d20 based ruleset. I also note this because you say "3.x SRD" as if there's some sort of version that covers both versions of the rules or something. To my knowledge, there isn't; 3.0 and 3.5 rules are rather different in a number of respects.
