Alright. I sent this (accidentally, I hit send instead of save *whacks head*) to him (after gathering all comments and trying to merge them, I hope everyone agrees with it ^_^ ):
"We wont merge, and you cannot call Globulation 2 a project of yours. You can however say you contribute to the project once we receive some work to put into the game, and the more you contribute, the bigger the advert back to Unknown Entertainment. Fisrt you'll just start with you name in the credits, after a bit more, a link and name in the changelog, and after a lot of work (I mean a lot of excellent work that everyone agrees on, might take you a year or two to get here), a 3-5 second advert on the Glob2 loading screen perhaps (only if you do high quality, and consistently work). But certainly to begin with, you'll be credited in the authors and changelog files." If he does work hard, I see why we cant. Otherwise, he gets the same respect as others in the AUTHORS file. Have yet to hear back, on whether they accept or not. Regards Kieran On 7/1/07, Bradley Arsenault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Personally I think its a viable option. Surely I could stand for my pride and keep Glob2 separate but as far as I care: Glob2 is GPL, marketing free, and free to download Our names are on the copyrights and our names are in the credits If anything happens, its them merging with us, not the other way around We could affiliate ourselves with Unknown Entertainment. They seem to be a bunch of programmers with nothing to do, not particularly uncommon on the internet, they just found themselves a forum and a logo. I'm not opposed that if they do contribute as a group, then we can give them credit as a group, and if they contribute lots, we can give them some extra credit (IE text on the opening image), but there won't be any advertisement in glob2. I'm sure eventually the programmers and artists will want there own names in the credits, they will disband and anyone still interested will continue to work with us. Still, even if its only a few months old, there are lots of people on that forum. If all they are interested is using us for advertisement (which I doubt they are), then they will contribute very little and as such will receive very little advertisement. -- Really. I'm not lieing.
