So basically the GSL says that if you publish a product for 4E then it can NEVER be published for another system?

Why didn't WoTC just say no more and take it all back in house? would have been a simpler way to go about this as that seems to be what they really want to do.

I like this except for the turn undead. I would change that to more of a slay undead type ability or an extra damage against undead. Of course my concept of the Witch Hunter is not a divine one. But a secular being who specializes in hunting evil and undead.
