I agree. I dont think a publisher can say it is unethical for someone to do a "day 1" extraction of the content. The license allows it. But it is foolhardy. A day 1 extraction would encourage a publisher to actively attempt to limit their OGC in future releases. Believe me, if I wanted to "cripple" OGC, I could. So could anyone else. I think we all agree we want to move away from that and move to freer and broader OGC designations. Day 1 extractions will, IMHO, put a damper on publiser's desire to be free and broad with their designations.
