> Ryan, you are speaking about binary executable.

Let's be clear then.

As far as I'm concerned, a generic file format that can be easily read by
any number of non-proprietary viewers (like ASCII text) is, in my opinion,
going to pass the "reasonable person" test so long as that file contains
clear instructions written in English that identify what is Open Game
Content.

A non-human readable file format, or one requiring a limited license
proprietary reader as the only way to view its contents is not going to pass
that test, in my opinion.

As I've said before, the OGL is poorly suited to operations in the digital
realm and is not a good multi-purpose content license.  It just doesn't
handle computer files as well as I might like.
