d3drocks, I guess you have an imaginary PS3 or clearly are lying about your friends list. PS3's don't support that many friends on a list.

Nice try though.

Besides if you have nothing good to say, don't say nothing. It'll avoid arguments when there doesn't need to be one.

Is very funny to see how greedy can become an open source contributor when see that another legally uses a program with commercial pourposes

Is sad to see so many people has a twisted definition of open source on their heads (Open Source == Closed Mind? if Stallman were dead will be turning in his grave, but he is alive so wont notice about this hopefully...)

Will be extremelly funny to see both of these groups of people playing the console nexuiz


Anyway, was good to know about the people behind Illfonic, good luck with the project

cheers ^^

Maybe you didn't read all the posts, but just small number of the developers that contributed with code to Nexuiz were actually contacted and asked for legal rights to use the code.

Yes, it's sad to see that many people don't know about Open Source. And I'm not sure if you understand either. It doesn't mater that it's called open source, the thing that really matters is the license, because there are many types of open source licenses. As far as I know, Nexuiz content is published under GPL and that means that anyone who uses the code without the author's consent has to publish the future work under the same license (GPL).

So, if they used content without contacting the authors, that means that it's illegal, because they will not publish the game under GPL.

I hope I made my point.

Nicely said. Indeed, it's sad things to see such things happening this way, with people from an opensource group involved...

Don't be so ignorant. This isn't about "open source" at all, see our [url=http://forums.alientrap.local/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=6079]community statement[/url].
