[QUOTE="Nellisir, post: 2772744, member: 70"] I can't do that. I'm one guy. I know squat about computers. I take medicine for Attention Deficit Disorder. The EXACT terms would have to be hammered out between the people who make it happen. And, I'm tired. Tomorrow night I have a game. Friday I'm out of town. Maybe Saturday or Sunday I'll whip up exact provisional terms. That's one thing I can't figure out how to make work. Lets say you give the OGC Repository permission to post your [I]Walk Like An Egyptian[/I] feat. A month later, Yair comes along and likes it, but thinks the dodge bonus is too high, and posts the [I]Walk Like An Etruscan[/I] feat. Three months after that, Phil, who loves us all, thinks [I]Walk Like An Etruscan[/I] would work great in his "[I]A Hundred And One Funky Walks[/I]" collection, that he's posting in the repository because he's gone insane. Then you decide to pull [I]Walk Like An Egyptian[/I]. With [I]Walk Like An Egyptian[/I] unauthorized, [I]Walk Like An Etruscan[/I] and "[I]A Hundred And One Funky Walks[/I] have to be pulled, and anything that was built off of those. It becomes a mess. Anyone's work becomes liable to be removed at any time because of somebody's whim. It just doesn't work. It's not fair to the people who built on your work in good faith. Permission would have to work just like declaring OGC - once it's declared, it's irrevocable. It's the only way anyone utilizing the repository can work with confidence. Agreed, for purposes of this repository. Absolutely, 100%, utterly agree. EVERYTHING I have, am, or ever will propose is fully legal, in accordance with the OGL, and retains an owners copyrights and control insofar as they retain them under the OGL. I'm trying. I'm wiped; my head hurts; it'll be colder tomorrow; and I'll be working outside. G'night all. Nell. [/QUOTE]
