[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 4170434, member: 8461"] Well, yes, but those were two different SRDs both released under the same umbrella agreement that was the OGL (for that matter, I'm not sure if the Modern and Fantasy SRDs both fell under the purview of the d20 STL or not, since both could have the d20 logo). Given that the two GSLs seem to be distinct (though likely similar) licenses, it might not be that simple. Would it be possible to publish a single product under both GSLs at the same time? Hm, I'm not sure I quite understand. The announcement said "publishers who register with WotC will be granted the right to use a version of the D&D logo that denotes the product as compatible with the D&D 4th Edition Roleplaying Game, in accordance with WotC’s terms and conditions." And you're saying that you must use the logo under the GSL. Does that mean that companies that want to use the D&D 4E GSL will be required to register with WotC? What does such registration entail? Will it also cover the d20 GSL? I'm glad to hear that, but what will it do in regards to the pitfall of writing a 4E version of your 3.5E book if that includes someone else's OGC that's in your book? Also, is there any language about GSL-based Open Game Content under the GSL(s)? Will people be able to use GSL-OGC from other 4E products in their own products? [/QUOTE]
