And quite possibly the scale comes down on the side of not releasing the rules under the OGL, we'll find out where that scale tilts when the licensing terms for D&D Next comes out. I love MapTool, great VTT and is certainly my preferred VTT. I know the dev is working on getting a .88 out soon (.87 was released early October I believe?), but I think his paying job is slowing that down a bit. I love community supported projects, but they have their downsides. This is where WotC can take an edge to increase their value-add.Yep, it would have remained in business. Would it have been as good as a WotC offering? Just because a site has a character generator up doesn't mean it is good or will be kept up to date as time goes on. One only has to look at the Pathfinder character generators to see that they are out there, but can't keep up with the rule supplements. This detracts from their use significantly. So simply having a character generator online does not mean it is actual competition to WotC.</blockquote>
