[QUOTE="Orcus, post: 3984220, member: 1254"] I dont want this great thread to descend into a legal argument. Who knows what will happen. I would never try to upset WotC on purpose and if I ever did anything to upset them I would absolutely 100% make it right. I have always been a good partner with them and, as a result, I have been trusted in the past with some content such as permission to do the original Tome of Horrors. That said, I dont see a non-compete applying to a process that WotC themselves is creating, releasing and supporting--namely, OGL products. OGL products simply are not competing with WotC. We are all part of the same WotC marketing and promotion web. That is why third party publishing exists--because it helps WotC, not because it hurts WotC. And please know that use of freelancers is very common. Heck, lots of Necro books have been done that way. We dont have massive staffs of in house writers. And on top of that all the freelancers I deal with, and this one in particular, have the utmost professionalism. I would never ask them to see protected content and they would never provide it.
