The question is: Who owns the copyright to Warzone? The README says
"Thankyou to Jonathan Kemp of Eidos Europe for permitting the release."
So, at that time, Eidos owned the copyright. Now what happened? Did
Eidos transfer the copyright to the Pumpkin guys, as Virgil said? (They
could have done it, there's no law (yet) that copyrights can only belong
to corporations.) Then those are the ones to ask. I'd guess Pivotal has
no role in that, other than them being employed there. So, asking
Pivotal will only be successful if they actually do know anything about
the Warzone affair. But if they don't, they might start assuming things,
and that's the last thing we need...
