OSRIC Discussions From Other Forums

I decided to make a post where OSRIC is discussed. It gets heated, but good points are made on both sides. The reason I do this is not to hurt anything, but to get a better understanding of the arguments. I'd like nothing better than for this to succeed, particularly Labyrinth Lord. My big fear is contributing to LL and helping it grow, only to end up being sued by Wizards and losing ownership to works I create using the rule set.

From Troll Lord Games. This one started about Basic Fantasy, but drifted to OSRIC, where it revealed some negative feelings from that community.

Discussion of OSRIC Legality on the Circvs Maximvs forums. This one was started with a link to Ryan Dancey's thread a Enworld. This one gets rather lively.

Dragonsfoot OSRIC Discussion. The question posed is how legal is it. Not a lengthy discussion here, but some good posts.

Ryan Dancy Answers OSRIC Questions with his opinion. I believe he had something to do with writing the OGL and D20 documents.

Goodman Games Board. It has an interesting post by the recent First Edition rules compatible Witch Queen Module Designer.
