Hi All,

I use the Shiva3d game engine to develop android games. I like the look of 
the new Game Services for leaderboards etc, and was thinking of writing a 
generic Shiva plugin so others could easily add Game Services to their 
Shiva code, which uses a high level LUA type language, instead of having to 
dive into the nuts and bolts of SDK integration..

However, looking at the TOS when I signed up, I see this comment :-

"You will not sublicense an API for use by a third party. Consequently, you 
will not create an API Client that functions substantially the same as the 
APIs and offer it for use by third parties."

Now I'm not sure whether creating a Shiva plugin for use by others, which 
would enhance the Shiva code with Game Services functionality, but not 
bypass any of the Google developer registration requirements, is considered 
sublicensing the API? There seems to be no direct Google support contact 
that I can find to ask this type of question.

Does anyone know how to contact Google to ask this directly, or have any 
advice as to whether it would be allowed or not?

Thanks.
Russell.
