Turns out that the second one was wrong and that the harbor might not be as safe as it was thought; probably not because WotC can really win a case but because almost everyone is afraid to find out.It's a defense against the idea that the license itself can be changed due to strong-arm legal tactics. Paizo will relinquish control of the license to a law firm for care-taking until a foundation can take charge of it. The idea is that even if Paizo should be taken over by space Nazis, they won't be able to do anything to change the license.Many different publishers plant to release different systems under ORC. There will not be a Paizo-dominated ecosystem.That was the thought. But, if WotC can attempt to rescind it, it seems that it is not really out of their control.</blockquote>
