And if not, who has standing to sue them over it?In other words: Let's say I take you up during the window when you are licensing the Pemerton SRD, use some of it in Dausuul's Tome of Internet Arguments, and start selling copies. If I'm reading you right, I have now entered into a contract with you. Part of that contract is that I have to make the same offer: I have to identify your Open Game Content in the DToIA and allow anyone else to do what I did.If I tried to withdraw that offer, I assume I would then be in breach of my contract with you, and you could sue me, right?Of course, if you were trying to claw back the Pemerton SRD from the OGL, you wouldn't want to do that. But until and unless a statute of limitations comes into play, I face the risk that you could change your mind. We'd have to mutually agree to modify our contract. Can we even do that given the terms of the OGL?And if someone else takes me up on my offer, they too must extend the same offer to others. If they then withdraw the offer, can I sue them for it? Or do you remain the only person who can sue anybody over the Pemerton SRD at any point in the chain?</blockquote>
