[QUOTE="Greg Benage, post: 8888036, member: 93631"] I'm honestly pretty much over it, but here's what the (leaked) license says. There's no "separate contract" with other creators that I can see. V. SHARE-ALIKE. We are letting You use Licensed Content for free because You are using it on a non-commercial basis. If you want to better protect your ownership, You may register under the OGL: Commercial. You agree that others can do the same with Your work. This means: A. Each time You distribute or otherwise make Your work available, You offer the recipient a license to the work on the same terms and conditions granted You under this license. B. You may not impose upon others any terms that alter, restrict or otherwise change the terms of this license or the recipient’s exercise of the rights granted under this license. C. You must distribute a copy of the license alongside Your work. For clarity, the license should probably appear either at the front or the back of Your book – but it must be in the book. D. The version of the license You enclose with Your work must be this license. You must keep intact all notices that refer to it and You must keep its disclaimer of warranties. [/QUOTE]
