You can also contact the creator directly for a standalone copy of the material complete with OGL and reduced section 15. That is what Ben Durbin did when he wanted to use my feat Cleave Asunder for Heroes of High Favor: Dwarves. I still wanted the Netbook of Feats to get some credit, so he put in a "special thanks" in the credits that covered that (I was a review board member for NBOF at the time).
