Philosophically, this argument is somewhat unsound.  Arguably, the value of 
the Linux operating system is "millions" only BECAUSE thay gave it away.  
Had thay kept the rights, it would be just another home grown flavor of PC 
unix.

We're also not talking about "just" RPG'ers here, and we're not talking 
about pennies.  Many folks on this list are professional game designers and 
many have thousands and (in one case I am aware of) TENS of thousands of 
dollars on the line for this effort.
