[QUOTE="El Mahdi, post: 4568825, member: 59506"] Not allowing something that they have no obligation to allow, is not interference. Your statement implies that you, and 3pp publishers, have an entitlement to this. You (and they) do not. If they want to grant the entitlement to do this, they can (and have). They also have the right to dictate the conditions upon which this entitlement is granted. That is their right and [B][I]THEY[/I] [U]ARE[/U] ENTITLED TO IT[/B]. They are not trying to reverse the OGL, since this is categorically not possible to do. It would be an exercise in futility. They have absolutely no legal grounds or leverage by with to do this. They have simply moved on to a new product line, one for which they have no obligation to make open content. Whether you or others want it to be open, or just less closed, is irrelevent. No longer printing material under the OGL is their, and every other publishers, choice. It is not an attack on, nor a reversing of, the OGL. [/QUOTE]
