 Hi,
 
 For the 727-230 Lufthansa livery and Cruzeiro livery were textures used found 
 on www.cgtextures.com.
 
 In my eyes the licences allowed me to use the textures, but their FAQ says 
 now no to OpenSource, and another OpenSorce engine (OpenArenea) ran into 
 trouble, as I found out today.
 
 So please remove the complete file before the Release of FGFS 2.0.0, I hope 
 to get a GNU GPL-compatible replace soon!

Maybe this can be done by removing the rights to read from that 
directory at the CVS server side (or something)? It would be a pitty to 
remove everything and add it back later.

Or maybe it's good enough to replace the texutures with plain white 
images for now?

I hate to be the messenger here, but I think it's really obvious that these 
textures have to be removed from CVS completely including any history. Because 
otherwise one could just checkout an older version of the textures to get them 
thus we would be distributing them, which is explicitly not allowed by the CG 
textures license.

In the moment eactly this seems to be right,(But I'm sure it is not quite 
right) and exactly what I want.

The problem was for the next release which is fixed for now.
Maybe this can be done by removing the rights to read from that 
directory at the CVS server side (or something)? It would be a pitty to 
remove everything and add it back later.

I'm already in contact with the author of CGtextures.com and that's what he 
wrote:

Quote by Marcel Vijfwinkel:
Hello Heiko,

Because a license does not explicitly say it cannot be used for Open Source 
does not mean it's fine to release the materials under an Open Source. The 
licenses have to be compatible in order to be allowed to do that.

In CGTextures the license it says:

It is not permitted to:
- Sell or distribute any of these textures in an unmodified form, or where the 
derived product you are selling or distributing is a Texture or a collection of 
Textures.

Most Open Source licenses allow unlimited redistribution of the materials, so 
the Open Source licenses are not compatible with this clause in the CGTextures 
license.

I can understand it would be nice for your if the textures could be released 
under Open Source, but unfortunately it's impossible to run a business if the 
textures would be Open Source licensed. If I would allow the textures to be 
released under Open Source, anybody could upload them to Bittorrent legally. 
And if people could download them without being restricted by a quota they 
wouldn't buy memberships. Without the membership sales, I can not work on the 
website fulltime and I cannot afford the webhosting or camera equipment to make 
these textures. Allowing the release under Open Source is really not any 
benifit for my business  (and don't get this wrong, even though I give away 
textures for free CGTextures is a business).

One option you have is to release your art materials not under Open Source, but 
under a license which does not allow redistribution of the textures. Or simply 
use textures from another source which can be used under Open Source ofcourse.

Kind regards,

Marcel Vijfwinkel

I'm still not convinced with his answer but until there is more clear licence 
or even answer by our laywers (Do we have?)I want to remove the whole history. 
I want to be on the safe side!

Thanks
Heiko

Please, because we are discussing permanent removal of something from the

found 2 additional textures (png files) with similar names to the textures
you requested be removed.  I asked about these.  Your answer indicated that
these two textures do not make use of textures which doesn't quite make

If you could give me an exact list of path + filename for each file you
