Listen, I understand that argument that the license allegedly doesnt on its face permit termination at will and it hasnt been amended to permit it (which ignores the possibility that, as a license, it is freely revocable at any time), and whether or not it is revocable, Wizards hasnt officially done what is required to revoke it.
But really, what is the point? As I can see it, there is no value in the d20 logo. So the only reason to not do it is the contrarian gamer desire to stick it to "big bad Wizards" with a "neener neener you didnt do it right, I am smarter than you, so I dont have to do it."
Scrub the logos from your pdfs. Put stickers on any backstock. Its not hard.
Wow Clark, no need to become patronising here. Thankyou for admitting that there has been no official revokation (or termination, since some people are sticklers for exact word usage here).
No, there is no value in the D20 logo. We've already removed our D20 logos or are in the process of removing them from our products. However, has it never struck you that a discussion can be interesting by itself? That the act of communicating, by itself, is rewarding? That we, as humans, have always thrived on sharing information and it is this act, by itself, that helps build community?
I'm sorry - there's no "wish to stick it to the big bad" or even a childish "neener neener" around my part of the discussion. Merely honest interest if there has actually BEEN an official termination/revokation of the license, as the license itself defines it.
Why do I wish to discuss this - well, first of all because I hoped to learn if I had missed something (the official termination), second of all to learn if there was some way a company, regardless of the text inside the license and without informing licensors, could withdraw a license. All this, because it DOES affect me as a publisher - perhaps not directly with the D20STL (since, as I said earlier, we are removing the logo already) but with other licenses.
Thankyou for taking the time to agree with me, and I'm VERY SORRY to have used your name in this thread.
