This discussion however would only ever come about if someone tried to sue
you over failing to meet the license. Now should the question not instead
be, if people did use the Appendix method, would WOTC sue you or request you
alter the way you show OGC in the next 30 days or they will sue you.
>From what I can see (this is not legally correct more of a moral statement)
WOTC designed the license to make it clear what is OGC so that we can all
reuse that regardless of the product it is in. Now adding an appendix would
show what is OGC and thus in the spirit of the OGL would be perfectly
acceptable. Now it may be true that legally to the letter of the license
this may be a grey area and you may not legally be allowed to do so, or at
least may have to persuade people that it is reasonably to do so. However
can you honestly see WOTC taking people to court for this?
If you reused it and in no way indicated or poorly indicated then yes I can,
but I can't see them arguing over a technicallity. They would instead be
more worried about the people who are blatantly disregarding the license.
Now again I suppose thats not to say that the other people who have released
under the OGC won't sue you :-)
Maybe we should just all add a statement to clarify what we would consider
acceptable in addition to what the license says. That way those people could
not sue you over it. Although WOTC still could since they have not added any
such clarification. No wait, thinking about that, would that fall under the
you are not allowed to add any terms to this license section?
