Perhaps a middle way: put "All spell names from Relics & Rituals are used by license." in YOUR copyright in your section 15. At that point, he has no choice AND no problem: he has to reproduce your section 15 verbatim. Then, if he happens to reuse anything that you reused from R&R, he's covered. If he DOESN'T reuse anything, he's just reproducing your section 15. Martin L. Shoemaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tablet UML: The UML tool you don't have to learn!
