In that regard, I can understand why some people might be wary of a license which mandates that absolutely everything used in conjunction with it be open (anything, taken to an extreme, can become bad), but by that same token a license which gives a downstream producer the "freedom" to give back absolutely nothing goes too far in the other direction.Someone who uses another person's content to make their game, and doesn't see fit to allow for others to do the same with what they've produced (at least in terms of the derivative parts), isn't acting in the spirit of openness.</blockquote>
