new Screenshots of Rage Harde released : Comment 119 of 135 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 12-Jul-2002 17:02 GMT | In reply to Comment 116 (TBone): Read Steffen's rant in
http://www.ann.lu/comments2.cgi?view=1014584647&category=unmoderated&start=1&60
Basically Steffen openly admits to destroying source code that he was legally obliged to make available, then says that "he has a different interpretation" and begins the same bizarre and unfounded line of reasoning that he has offered here, namely that he has an implicit license to distribute anything he likes to "beta testers" without obeying any copyright license or restriction that would apply.
In the same thread you'll also see Steffen announce that the port will be ready "soon". You would do well to treat that announcement with the same scepticism that's appropriate to his interpretation of Copyright law.
I would probably think Steffen was just naive and obstinate, except that we know Ben Hermans was consulted about this, and he does know enough about contract law to realise that his company is in breach. So that means it's probably deliberate. |
