Guide lines like these should keep publishers motivated to actually think about what they designate OGC. Please keep in mind that these are guidelines and not 'laws'.One year grace period: Those products that designate everything as OGC except company name and product name. Example: A Magical Society: Ecology and CultureHalf year grace period: Those products that designate all rules related material as OGC and don't 'cripple' it by designating things like spell and monster names as IP. Example: Unearthed Arcana or Book of the RighteousThree months grace period: Those products that designate all rules related material as OGC and 'cripple' it by designating things like all spell and all monster names as IP. Or aren't clearly designating OGC. Example: Book of Strongholds & DynastiesSix weeks grace period: Those products that designate all rules related material as OGC and 'cripple' it by designating things like all spell and all monster names as IP. And aren't clearly designating OGC. Example: Cry HavocNo grace period: Those products that make it a point to not clearly designate OGC. Example: Some of the older Mongoose and Malhavoc products.</blockquote>
