[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8900640, member: 6801845"] My assumption based on what they have said is that anything published under 1.0a will be unaffected. Anything published after a grace period would in theory have to follow OGL 2.0, if of course that revoking 1.0a is not thrown out in court. Which leaves us with: what would the impact of 2.0 be on newly produced content actually be? We don't know for certain, but to me it seems incredibly minimal. I see no reason to believe it's a "rug pull" of any sort and I have yet to see concrete reasons why it would be so other than vague assertions of evil corporate types. As far as I can tell it only has a negative if you assume worst case scenario blundering by WOTC that would actively harm it's business interests by shutting down 3PP across the board. I don't assume that which is why I have no plans to change my purchasing decisions until my assumption is proven otherwise. I would make the same recommendation to anyone publishing or planning to publish. You have every right to be concerned but I don't see a reason to overreact or panic because it would make no sense for WOTC to shut down all 3PP. [/QUOTE]
