The new draft of OGL 1.2 has been released. They reserve the right to revoke the licence at their discretion. This isn't compatible with free software as defined by the free software foundation. I'm optimistic that the ORC will be much better than what Hasbro is willing to create.
As long as the ORC is compatible with Free Software (as defined by the Free Software Foundation) like the OGL 1.0a seems to be, risque 3rd party content will be allowed under the license. I believe it is very important to have a license that is permissive in this manner like the OGL 1.0a is.
I support this direction fully. I hope the ORC, like the original OGL, is compatible with Free Software licenses as defined by the Free Software Foundation. It sounds like that is the intent :) <3 The leaked OGL 1.1 definitely doesn't. |
