Yes, a noble reason. Playing locally instead of online reduces bandwidth demand. More kids can play. > I had to port them as a activity for sugar. I didn't write or own > the swf. Ah, thanks for that. Until now I thought you had written them, because that's how activities.sugarlabs.org presented them. > It is free, there are versions for those in Android which are free > also. Can you tell me exactly where you downloaded it from? You see, I'm having trouble finding where, because there are so many versions. Once I find out where, I can discover the license. > So if you think it is against Sugar Labs culture, i recommend you > take it down yourself. I'll avoid the culture issue, since we are not homogenous, and stick to the copyright and license issue. As far as I can see, you have downloaded the .swf files and attached the GPLv3+ license to the bundle. You also wrote some really cool Python code to run Gnash, and you licensed that code as GPLv2+; your name is on the top line. Since you did these things, you're responsible for taking them down as much as anyone. ;-) Here's the details of the two files; -- Kunfu-1 Kunfu.swf, but no Kunfu.fla Kunfu.activity/README.txt says (C)kunfu, Screenshot says "Legend of the Dragon Fist", and "A Ben Olding Game - www.benolding.co.uk". I've written to Ben to check the license. http://www.bikerchicks4u.com/games/game/358/ has the same md5sum and size. -- Football-1 Football.swf, and Football.fla has a "Saved by Adobe Flash Windows 9.0 build 494 timecount = 1241204734" tag, which could be 2nd May 2009. README.txt says EatBoom.FLA developed by Innovations for Learning http://www.innovationsforlearning.org The same README.txt file is in EatBoom-2 uploaded by Wade Brainerd. Actually, EatBoom.fla is the same file as Football.fla. I've not been able to find an online source of Football.swf; too many choices. -- I've marked both activities as disabled in activities.sugarlabs.org until we can resolve this license issue. Thanks for your patience, and please continue to discuss. EatBoom-2 does properly credit an author that isn't Wade. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/ _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
