I must confess to wanting to keep Magic World magic simple and basic, leaving the door open for someone else to come along later and make a more advanced version called "Wizardry".

Good ideas all...

I believe they do. As it isn't translated from any of the French material, I would be surprised if they don't own it.

There's probably ample material for two or three different BRP magic system books.

As I've noted upthread, the temptation to write a BRP Magic book is strong, but after a year of playtest, writing and/or editing 276,000 words, and over three years of development on a generic system, I want to get back to content, which I enjoy most.
