Re: [WEB400] powerEXT - Clarifications from the author






The remark was somewhat tongue-in-cheek Aaron - but it seems to me 
that licensing is certainly an issue in this thread and that doesn't 
bode well for the future. If/when RPG's open I/O model comes to 
fruition it just seemed to me that that if it all gets bogged down 
with this kind of discussion we can only look to commercial vendors to 
make add-ons available.

But then maybe I'm just feeing old and cranky today.

What license does Scott K. use for his stuff I wonder?
