We got spoiled by the WotC of eight years ago being a rare exception to that; we'd all like to see that level of openness continue but for reasons known only to itself, today's WotC only rarely chooses to communicate that way anymore. That's why determining what actually happened with the GSL is even an open question in the first place. As much as I may dislike the change in WotC's way of communicating (or failing to), though, I'd like to only blame them for things they've actually done.</blockquote>
