>and *do* what the *hell* you *like*.

Andre,

 even illegal things? Even sell it without adding a single line of own work
or creativity? I don't mind resellers (they produce the CD-ROM the SW is on
and often also do handbooks, S&H and support), but I don't like it if
people go there, compile OC and then ship only the binary and say they had
done it. I think we want OC to be open and free, right? We *could* require
people to always ship along the sources of the OC engine (at least in the
state it was before they changed it to suit their needs).

>Why don't we want this? What and who are you trying to protect? Is there a
>conspiracy I haven't heard about? And who killed Roger Rabbit?

 See above. As to Roger, he was saved, if you don't remember the end of the
film. Only the cab got some burns.

 If we do that, I'll really bite. Or bark and leave the premises. That
wouldn't be free and open.
