* '''Delete''': Wasn't used, so no point in preserving it for history, and not active, so no point in preserving it for contemporary information. [[User:Geogre|Geogre]] 15:30, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)

* '''Keep''': it is misleading to assume that this license is inactive, in fact there are still systems and sites out their who have and are still publishing their material under the OOGL, for example the [http://www.tiltingatwindmills.net/alfresco/html/appendix/oogl.html al'Fresco] RPG and the Jazz RPG. Also, this should be kept for historical reasons as one of the first alternatives to the OGL. Please note that [[User:Bblackmoor|Bblackmoor]] is the author of this license and may have other reasons than those stated for deleting this page. --[[User:Axon|Axon]] 14:17, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)

* '''Delete''': Non-notable, POV, Fancruft (members of the "open source" community can be just as vocal and subjective as any Star Trek or Buffy fan). Incidentally, the "keep" note above is from Axon, one of the people who keeps adding POV to the entry. Axon also deleted the "marked for deletion" tag (which I have restored). <br />For the record, the [http://www.tiltingatwindmills.net/alfresco/alfrescoOGC.html "al fresco" game] (which is, as far as I know, the first and only third-party game ever released under the OOGL) has long since been released under a [[Creative Commons]] license. OOGL is still listed there, because it's not a revocable license, but the Creative Commons license is clearly the preferred license, and theThe authors of that game specifically request people '''not''' to use the OOGL. The argument for keeping this entry active amounts to little more than making it a vanity page for [[Richard Stallman]]. The guy has his own wikipedia entry: he does not need another one. -- [[User:Bblackmoor|Bblackmoor]] 18:20, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)

* '''Keep''' Notable topic. --[[User:L33tminion|L33tminion]] | [[User talk:L33tminion|(talk)]] 16:21, Nov 5, 2004 (UTC)

* '''Delete'''. One use of the license hardly makes it notable. [[User:Wile E. Heresiarch|Wile E. Heresiarch]] 23:20, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)
