No one is arguing that leeches don't have the right under the OGL to
behave that way. But there's right (as in legal) and right (as in
proper), and if the standard behavior of OGC publishers is to leech,
open gaming won't amount to much. I certainly won't be supporting
publishers who are looking at OGC strictly as a public resource they
can exploit for personal profit.
