Message: <blockquote data-quote="John Quixote" data-source="post: 8884368" data-attributes="member: 694">I get that, but since there's no mechanism for revocation within the language of v1.0, it would seem that the only way WotC could ever compel anyone to treat v1.0 as revoked is by getting them to agree to a new license: GSL or OGL v1.1.And if I don't want to agree to a new license, I don't have to look at it, I don't have to read it, I don't have to think about it, I don't have to know about it, I don't even have to admit that it exists in the ontological sense.As for trying to revoke 1.0 without a new agreement, what does WotC think they can do? Stand up on a chair in the office and shout, "I… declare… REVOCATION!!!", Michael Scott style? Legally, that means about as much as a preacher on a street-corner declaring that The End is Near.The 3PP community is too big and decentralized for a blanket revocation of OGL v1 to ever have a hope and a prayer of holding up. It wouldn't just be stuffing toothpaste back in the tube or a genie back in its bottle; it would be compelling Maxwell's Demon to break the second law of thermodynamics.</blockquote>
