[QUOTE="jgbrowning, post: 2771671, member: 5724"] Which is why I was talking about creator intent, and not OGL intent. I think we both agree that the OGL has no intent in any fashion concerning value, only distribution, which is why I think no one can claim "OGC yearns to be free of cost" or conversely "OGC yearns to be with cost." However, I can say "If you use my OGC and make it FREE, when I have already made it for cost, you are obviously doing somthing that I as a creator didn't want done." Just because the license allows you the ability to do it doesn't mean the license is pro or against making OGC FREE of cost. The license gives the legal authority to do so against the wishes of the creator because the license is independent of matters of valuation. And every creator signed on with the liscense, so they know it's a possiblity. But it doesn't mean that it's what they want to happen, so don't use a false justification such as "OGC yearns to be free" as an excuse for turning someone's for pay work into something for free. Of course. :) joe b. [/QUOTE]
