Pathfinder’s iconic cleric, Kyra. I love this lesbian and the wlw poly goddess she worships (that some people might recognize from Critical Role!)

Source: "Defend the OGL" Discord Server

You can join the server yourself here. Transcription of this screenshot is below the cut.

TLDR: Person who led the original drafting of the original OGL1.0 speaks on their support of #OpenDnD and a desire to establish an Open RPG License that is system/publisher independent. He is also extending an invitation for any publishers/designers to join in these efforts.

Transcription:

(A Discord message posted by user TAT, who created and loosely runs the "Defend the OGL" Discord server)

Folks, Last night I spoke to Brian Lewis, the attorney that originally led the drafting of the OGL 1.0 as an employee of Wizards of the Coast, who was very supportive of the opposition to the changes. Today, I received the following email from him, directed to me and numerous other studios and interested parties. He asked me to share - I have edited only to include hyperlinks that do not survive copy-pasting. I am not sure what to make of the URL of the second one.

(The following is Brian Lewis' letter.)

"I could use your help. Our firm believes that it is crucial to our industry that it have an agnostic open source style license that provides designers and publishers clarity on what they can readily use from a publisher’s game without having to pay lawyers to research or defend that use. The mere threat that the OGL, a tool that has widely been perceived as working toward that goal, could be unilaterally be modified or withdrawn casts a chilling specter of doubt and uncertainty on the gaming industry.

As the person that came up with the legal framework behind the OGL, and as an invested custodian of our industry, I feel a powerful desire to drive a project to create the OpenRPG License which is envisioned as a truly independent open source license (of the kind that did not exist in 1996 when I started conceiving of this). Ultimately, this needs to be in the hands of a recognized and respected independent open source community hub that functions like Linux.

Today we would like to announce this effort and create a hub for socializing and refining the OpenRPG License. I am hoping that you can help by letting me know if you support this, and if so, if you would be willing to share a message on your social media platform(s) roughly along the following lines:

I believe our industry needs a new Open RPG License that will be system and publisher independent. My friends at Azora Law ([email protected]), an intellectual property law firm that represents several game publishers, came up with the legal framework for the original OGL over 20 years ago. I trust and support them in shepherding a broad effort to create an agnostic open source style license that provides designers and publishers clarity on what they can use from a participating publisher’s game without having to pay lawyers to research or defend it. They will also find an appropriate independent, non-profit home for the new Open RPG License.

If you are an interested publisher or designer, I encourage you to join the effort and provide input and feedback on drafts of this license."

(This concludes both Brian Lewis' letter, as well as user TAT's Discord message.)

Posted today by Tenkar's Tavern- some people from Paizo talked with a lawyer about the potential of making an actual OpenRPG license that people can use, and they're starting to work on setting up a non-profit to handle it. They're looking for industry companies to join them and get on a list for helping to comment on it as they draft it.

Worth looking into if you or a company you know would have interest in helping with this!

Los ataques de criaturas mágicas e híbridos cada vez son mayores en el mundo mágico. El miedo y la desconfianza han crecido de forma exponencial a estos, lo que está provocando que el gobierno mágico inglés, que se encuentra bajo la mano de Hermione J. Granger, se tambalee. Los aurores apenas pueden contener a estos seres y el cerco cada vez se cierra más en el país, por lo que las medidas de seguridad se están implementando: desde toque de queda a no viajar en solitario. Los más extremistas están en contra de la política de no-agresión a estas criaturas, mientras que los partidarios de las criaturas creen que todavía se puede intentar mediar con ellas. ¿Qué bando apoyarás tú?

It’s wonderful seeing the community come together to protect our hobby and creators’ contributions. If D&D becomes a closed system, I will not be moving forward onto OneD&D/6e, but looking at alternatives embracing this new license.

“It is really up to no discussion. By no means do the human deaths come even close to the sadness one must endure upon the death of a dog in modern cinema. I assume it all comes down to purity and innocence. We know humans are imperfect, we know dogs are everything we wish our sidekicks to be. Companionship, love, loyalty. Simple as.” with a sigh, he turns off the tv now running credits for Marley&Me at the local bar. “Another drink?”

This hotfix is larger than some of the previous fixes, including a fix for the TravisCI build errors.

A single hotfix has been released on Sunday (11/05/17). This hotfix was released to reolve an issue when the Travis CI system ran any homebrew operation, which was fixed simply by updating homebrew on maxOS builds.

(Commit c3180be)

Commit 10801e8: Added Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct to lay the groundwork for community interaction and respect.

Commit fb666f2: Ability to build on Windows confirmed.

Commit 12d5c14: Fixed roll command bug and added basic help command to openrpg TUI.

Commit 353d6cc: Addition of if [[ "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME" == "osx" ]]; then brew update; fi during before_install operation.

Commit 9d8a0bf: Added back Linux Clang-5.0 build

Until next time!
