[QUOTE="Vaalingrade, post: 8907968, member: 82524"] Ultimately, it puts into CC that parts they couldn't even try to copyright. It's really a rubbish 'deal' that's still obfuscated what they're digging for in the old SRDs. But what it ultimately does, barring us getting something better by keeping the pressure one AND them actually adding the skeletons of the old SRDs, is buy time. It would allow time for companies to still keep a production schedule going while they flee to ORC or a boutique system of their own or work out a contract for 5.5e. Time to test their chest on the OGL in court for those prepared to step up. It's not good. It's not right. We shouldn't stop putting on the pressure until they just admit what they're [I]really[/I] so desperate to kill the OGL for and stop lying. But I feel like right now, if they do all they're offering, even with the traps laid in, we're at a point that isn't instantly destructive to the people who were under direct threat two weeks ago. We've bought them time. The work's not done yet. Not by far and I urge people not to give up or become complacent with this offer that's decent on the surface, but hollow underneath. But I want us to all understand that we have accomplished something and that should be inspiration to forge on. [/QUOTE]
