Hello all, i see the intention behind protecting models has been misunderstood. Lets clarify the issues: the modellers asked me to provide secured file format to prevent model theft and resell for benefit. They are willing to contribute to FG and don't plan to sell add-ons. Instead they would like to see their copyright enforced and not abused by others. AFAIK open source licenses in generall are about the programs and their code, not the conent people create with this software. I bet noone would ask companies using open office to disclose their documents or excel sheets ;). I also notice that MSFS enjoys greater attention by add-on creators. As for the protection realization: i think of an OSG format plugin supporting common OSG plugin conventions. The code won't be disclosed and only shipped in compiled form for dynamic linking against.
