Star Wars is a D20 game. Lizard has proposed adding a Tech class under the
Open Gaming License. Doug has suggested that that is unnecessary, because it
does not fit the genre. I have disagreed, and said that it is entirely
within the scope of D20 under the Open Gaming License to add "fixes" that
make a better game that better fits the genre.

This is a list about Open Gaming with the D20 system. I'm sorry, but I fail
to see how this discussion can be anything but on topic -- particularly in
that the other major D20 game, D&D 3E, handles Craft skill in a slightly
different fashion that seems to work better and fit its genre better. The
difference between these two D20 games sheds light on D20 in general.
