Sig:  Matthew, with all due respect.  Your ultimate series are mostly
cut and paste exercises.  I know you do edit the material, but not to a
great extent.  Most of the netbook feats you used were  verbatem.  There
were a number of cases where two or three feats from different sources
had the same mechanic.  I don't fault you for it (happens to us too) but
surely you mostly coppied and pasted from other sources.  I don't think
that's bad because it is a compelation which should be exactly that.
Others just want to be able to use your books the way you used others
books.

Sig:  Others.  My point before wasn't to say I like the Mongoose
declaration of OGC.  It was to say that if they play fast and loose with
their declarations, they don't have much case to hasle you if you use
their material in a fast and loose interpretation of what they declared.
"Looks like it was derived from the SRD to me."  Be vauge about what is
OGC and what isn't and be prepared to have people publish your non OGC
material as their own.

BTW:  Netbook of Feats is all OGC all the time!  Take it all and wory
not!

I have to respectfully disagree :)

I love being able to use material from other people - but I do not
believe
that cutting and pasting to glory is really the right to think of it  :)
Or, looking at it another way, if that is what people here are really
after
from us, I have to wonder about their accusations of laziness. . .
