..so, the LWO format and loader belongs to OSG 
and _not_ to Ian nor his group???

..not ever OSG, and except for brlcad, it's been a while, back in 
my and Georg's build script days, I was trying to find out how to 
make plib, SG, FG, TG etc .debs right out of cvs until I got 
distracted by racist attacks and tax fraud on my Polish neighbors 
the last 2 years, now they are being asked to pay last years 
income taxes, for the 3'rd time. 
I don't quite see how that policy is supposed to help Mr Jonas 
Støre's chances of becoming NATO's next Secretary General. ;o)

..my understanding from Ian's last few posts, is both you FG developers
and I _may_ face harassment litigation from him, he failed to confirm
we indeed had his license to download his "lwo BorgBoxes.zip" to try
make it work with FG, so we will have to rely on the public record here,
on that.  As long as we stay awake on this, I see no worries from _that_
theory. ;o)

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
