[QUOTE="kenmarable, post: 4046383, member: 40359"] But if WotC includes a revocation clause in the GSL, then they can define "new and original" however they want after the fact with their lawyers. I'm certainly not saying that's ideal, but blatant attempts to bypass a requirement like that with junk can be prevented. I don't want to argue that WotC [b]should[/b] have a revocation clause in the GSL since that's some scary power and further makes it a license to use WotC material and not material between 3rd parties. But it is something they could easily throw in there if they feel it's necessary. With or without a revocation clause, I still think that a "X% original content" clause would be more helpful than not. No matter what terms you come up with, there will be loopholes. But that policy seems to be one that is clear and easy to follow and enforce. [/QUOTE]
