When can we get a data set other than SRD?

It will be multiple months for the first game system other than d20. The reason for this simple. The publishers we've entered into licenses with have to get us all of the material in a format that we can readily use - i.e. not just PDFs that we have to copy and paste everything out of. Then we have to develop the data files. Then the publisher has to review everything. Then we iterate through multiple reviews until the publisher is happy. Then we have to test everything for accuracy. Then we can release the data files. Obviously, this entire process takes a good amount of time.

I realize this isn't the answer you were hoping for, but I'd much rather tell you the truth up front than give you false hopes about something being available sooner than is realistic. :-)
