new Screenshots of Rage Harde released : Comment 50 of 135 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 10-Jul-2002 00:02 GMT | In reply to Comment 38 (Steffen Haeuser): "I had a very bad day and morons like you don't make it any better."
Calling people names doesn't help your cause.
"I did not distribute any copies. I gave out Beta versions. This is a difference."
There is no difference for the purpose of copyright law. Giving people copies of the Quake II engine or a derivative work is illegal unless you have permision. Where is permission granted for you to give people copies of the Q2 engine?
That's right, in the GNU GPL. And what does the GNU GPL say about giving people copies of ID Software's program? That's right, it says that you must include source code or a proper notice offering source code. NOTHING ELSE gives you the right to make copies of ID Software's program and give them to people.
So, as we established right at the start, you are in breach of contract. |
