I love D&D 3e. Not just because of the vast improvements in the rules, but also because it was made public. Other people could use the rules to create their own material. While it did produce a lot of rubbish, there were many things out there that were simply superb.
Now it seems that Wizards made a U-Turn and wants to fight that creativity with all their might. They want to keep D&D for themselves. *My* preciousss. Does anyone know about a bigger step backwards in the history of RPG?
I would wager my donkey that the next edition of D&D will not allow any third party to produce any content. Clearly Wizards had enough of being upstaged by others who proved that they know what they do.
Now that Wizards is getting rid of these sources, I can only surmise that they gave up on trying to make an ever better game. They clearly intent to get a D&D monopoly, so people have to take their stuff or not play anything at all.
But unless they're able to revoke the OGL, I think they have reckoned without their host.
