Seriously though why is there still coming 5e compatible stuff out after the OGL debacle?
The thing about D&D is that there is literally zero way WoTC can actually stop you from creating 5e content without their license. You'll have a hell of a time publishing it, but there's basically nothing they can so to stop you from just printing sheets or installing a dice bot on discord and getting to the races.
And they also dual-licensed most of the 5e SRD under Creative Commons as part of the "oh crap we didn't expect everyone to be mad enough to actually hurt our bottom line" drawback from the OGL debacle.
