Together with Tracy - she's the heart and soul of the brand.As a fan - I don't see this as a disaster. Sov Press did as much with the license as could reasonably be expected. Apart from the remaining two modules in the classic campaign (which may end up being finished within the year) and the Races of Ansalon book.... well.... they've had a good run with the license and created a vast majority of what fans of the setting could ever want for D20. It's all been high quality stuff for the most part too. So really - this is not the doom and gloom associated with Dungeon and Dragon and I don't at all think that this need be seen as part of some menacing uber plan.As a fan, I'm grateful for the license that has been extended to date and the great products that have been created under it. So from my perspective sitting in the bleachers, this is not a dire thing at all.</blockquote>
