 | | Open gaming is the movement within the amateur and professional role-playing game industry that is somewhat analogous to open source movement. |
 | | The open gaming movement refers to those individuals, amateur gaming groups and gaming publishing companies who publish their content (rules, sourcebooks, etc.) under a copyleft, open content or free content license imparting the freedom to modify, copy, and redistribute some or all of the content. |
 | | An interesting development in the open gaming movement has been the arrival of "open supplement licenses": that is, licenses where the original source rulebooks are covered by normal copyright, but a license permits the publication of supplementary material, such as adventures and new rules. |
