Hello!
Check this:

It is my current pet project ^^ A Hero Lab version for D&D Next. As you can see in the background, it is basically a modified D&D 4e version which uses the ruleset of D&D Next.
And yeah, the licence situation is a big issue there. But I am doing the work now, and then check if I can actually release it in some way ^^ I like developing.
I will still continue on my D&D 4e bugfixes. Actually my Pen&Paper group is having no plans whatsoever currently to move away from 4e. Still I think it would be nice for many people to have Hero Lab support D&D Next, so I started working on it.
And it is still a lot of work... though a lot is already working, as well ;-)
