And I posted that I would support a clause in the OGL that
prevented usage of D20, D&D and any other WotC trademark.
This seems quite justified when viewed in light of the
contribution they are making in the D20SRD.
Please don't take offense. The following is a general question
and not aimed at anyone in particular:
Why should other people who haven't even said what contributions
they will make to the OGL be given the extra trademark protections
that WotC seeks? From the history of the list, most trademark
holders are seeking to not leak any content into the OGL.
