Uhm...you could always 'reuse the rules', OGL or no.
The primary advantage of the OGL is that you can now cut&paste your way to fame and glory. (A good example of this, caught by a reviewer, can be found in the 'Whirlpool' spell in Seas of Blood (Mongoose) and Seafarer's Handbook (FFG). I wrote the latter; you wrote the former. Both of us, apparently, began with the SRD text for the Whirlwind spell, and then edited it as need be.)
There's no copyright on the concept of a 'whirlwind' or 'whirlpool' spell, but the fact both of us could use verbatim text rather than reinventing the wheel is one of the major advantage of the OGL.
