[QUOTE="David Destefanis, post: 7686298, member: 6804495"] New here, I went to this thread and read it out fully. Very interesting material. I did go and read that because I'm checking all this stuff because a company I have contacts with (NoLands comics) asked me to check if they could produce conversions for a D20 module they created and sold just a month ago. The goal was to check all legal implications (what can be done and what can't), and this thread is a mine of information, so thank you really. I went first to Dragonsfoot forum to get some advice, then to the WotC forum and saw it down, then to their contact page, but nothing really seem to stand out as the "people I should get in contact with" on WotC to get an eventual consent to use their terms/trademark for Next or 4E (which, as you said, would make things easier). I understand conversions can be done as long as you're careful, without getting their approval, but if I/we can avoid this hassle, so much the better. Of course, we'll need to do it for other systems too (older D&D editions, Pathfinder, etc.). [/QUOTE]
