OGL content
The only thing that I see preventing me from releasing my content(i.e. modules) as OGL is a restriction placed by Bioware/Infogrames. NWN modules are not software anymore than PDFs are. If I write content, regardless of its format, I believe I can release it under any ole liscence(OGL, GPL, LGPL, etc) I want, except in this case the EULA that comes with NWN may not allow it. I need to read more of it.
Assuming there is a conflict with NWN's EULA and the OGL what I predict you will see is people releasing their content in a divided format. You'll see the map parts and the things that have to be done with the toolset released as one file that is released under NWN's EULA and then the scripts that make up the heart of a module released as a SECOND file that is released under OGL and thus allowing for use of OGC. Then it will be left to the end user to put the scripts in the module. Certain OGC (like places, maps,etc,) that can only be done on the toolset will not be able to released but the majority will.
