This is unambiguously good news. There is no asterisks or caveats. We won. This is what what we wanted, and will ensure that 5e can continue the future. 5e VTTs will continue to operate and thrive.

And I will be able to continue to make content for 5e.

More is coming. The future is once more bright.

RIP the money I spent on lawyers, and I'll have to change a lot of plans, but this is the best news we could get.

Thank you to everyone in the community that made their voices heard. Thank you to everyone that did not give up.

More news will come as I once more rethink my future plans. The Kickstarter is still scheduled, now with more room to breath. It goes live on the 31st.

All the best,
