[QUOTE="mamba, post: 8874012, member: 7034611"] I never said that this is what closes it, but the fees definitely do imo (not that I am fine with the reporting part either) ;) I could even argue just having to let them know what you want to publish already makes it not open, but for simplicity let’s go with the fee I do expect the actual license to have other parts that close it as well however. As I wrote I am expecting a GSL 2.0 more than a OGL 1.1, regardless of the name marketing considered more palatable. We will find out soon enough yep, that is ‘on me’. Different people have different lines in the sand. Some do not care about any of this. agreed, I do not care about it being human readable, they can drop that from the requirements too ;) The VTT will display it human readable, I do not care whether it stores it that way. Have a function to extract the screen as it is shown to a text file / pdf (not as a screenshot, as proper text) and I am good To me the focus is on the document / data being static and the ‘product’ being related to roleplaying. I do not see the info in the VTT data having to change more often than the data in the PDF, so I lump it in with the static side. 20 years ago no one thought of VTTs, back then print and pdf would have been ok, in the spirit of the OGL I would include VTTs as well - not that WotC cares one bit about that spirit these days that was never covered anyway, you do not need to change the OGL for that [/QUOTE]
